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.

(3 minutes)  Switch off and serve with choice of gravy.

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.
