Kugan,

:notworthy: :ty: very much for posting the recipe. I dont know how i missed it :think: . I will try this weekend tell you how it comes.
Thanks!

Selviem, thanks for your nice feed back.
Glad your children liked the spring rolls.
try the egg fried rice that I am posting.
Thanks, Kugan98

Dev, try using corn flour and rice flour.
Just sprinkle water, very very little. Just for the flour to stick to the pavakkai. Then you fry, see it stays crisp longer.

O.K I will post two types of fried rice recipe for you :lol:
Take care, Kugan98

Hi Selvi...........thank u nga for your kind wishes :D

Dev, thanks for your post.
I remember posting a recipe for szechuan sauce.
I will post the fried frice if you like.
We even have our Malaysian style simple fried rice :lol:

Dev the reason for the smokey taste is the hot wok. One of the reasons that restaurant-made fried rice has that smoky flavour is the high temperatures and the seasoned carbon steel woks that they use. .

The soy sauce will make the rice wet instead of caramelising and the rice too will not get heated all the way through. Now, to get a nice, smoky, fried rice flavor, you have to stir-fry everything on a very high heat, and quickly.

Heat your wok on high, add the cooking oil then stir fry all the ingredients on high heat .
Here at times you can see the flames in the wok.
The soy sauce will sizzle and give out an aroma.

For Chinese fried rice the sesame oil will make the difference.
Thanks and take care, also a big thank you for keeping me company. Kugan98
