Prepare the Rice

  • Soak basmati rice in water for 30 minutes. Cook according to package directions until tender, then set aside to cool completely.

Sauté Aromatics and Vegetables

  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the white parts of the spring onions, minced ginger, and garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the chopped carrots, bell peppers, onions, and cabbage. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender-crisp.

Add Sauce and Seasoning

  • Stir in the Schezwan sauce, soy sauce (if using), salt, and white pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the vegetables.

Combine Rice and Vegetables

Garnish and Serve

  • Garnish with the chopped green parts of the spring onions.
  • Serve hot as a main course or side dish. Enjoy!
