Heat a wok or kadai, keep the flame over medium high throughout the preparations. Add oil and when its hot, add chopped ginger garlic and chopped green chillies followed by mixed vegetables along with spinach greens. Sprinkle the sugar and stir -fry for about 1 minute (do not cook them till death, leave them slightly crunchy). Now add cooked cooled rice along with soy sauce, salt and pepper. If adding chili sauce instead of green chili, then use it at this stage. Throw in the chopped spring onions and stir-fry or toss till everything is combined well. (3 minutes) Switch off and serve with choice of gravy.
Notes
Yield: Serves 3 adults approx.
Always use a day old refrigerated rice or cooled rice. Warm of freshly cooked rice will become mushy and spoil the dish. Sugar will help to retain the original colour of the veggies and its optional.

Mullai, Nice recipe.
Can’t find onion (ingredient no2) added while cooking, is onion needed or just spring/green is enough? Also, in your ingredients, there is ginger/garlic – 1/2 tsp(finely minced) and then garlic – 3nos(finely minced), is there any reason why you have specified garlic twice? Can’t find any separate instructions for it.
Thanks

Sri, onion is not a must you can go ahead with just spring onions. The ginger part was an error, its been fixed. Thnaks.
Presentation is awesome..:)
