Vegetable fried rice

I love fried rice when it comes to rice varieties. My standard menu option, when i go to restaurants is veg-fried rice. Vishnu loves chicken fried rice very much. Fried rice is a regular dish in my kitchen. This dish is so simple to make yet tasty. when one is not in a mood to cook or running out of time, this dish stands first in line. If u have left over rice, then nothing could be so easy than making the fried rice.. Rice fried with a variety of vegetables and soy sauce makes this dish healthy n tasty..
