Corn and capsicum fried rice

 Cooking full meals every day is not possible and whoever invented this fried hats off to him/her.My husband is not a fan of fried rice but me and dhee completely enjoy this simple and mild dish with sauce. She likes adding eggs in this recipe. As I ran out of basmati rice I cooked this dish with normal ponni rice. Texture and taste are same but the flavour is compromising.

Enjoy the dish simply with tomato sauce or Manchurian.



Note:
You can add some more olive oil at the end to give more fresh flavour.I don't like the after taste of vinegar so instead, I added lemon juice for a difference still it tasted good.
