Schezwan fried rice is a popular fried rice variety from the Indo chinese cuisine. It is quite popular & is most ordered in Indo-Chinese restaurant. Unlike the regular fried rice, schezwan fried rice is hot & spicy with bursting flavors of ginger, garlic, soya sauce & red chilli paste. Cooked rice is tossed with Schezwan sauce along with choice of veggies or any kind of protein. Here I have used mushrooms, green pepper, spring onions, carrots with fresh prawns.
