Schezwan Fried Rice

Indo-Chinese food has taken India by a storm. Schezwan fried rice is made using a sauce with schezwan or sichuan peppers. This gives it the characteristic red colour and spicy flavour.

Originating in West Bengal, the food we know as Chinese is in fact FAR from actual Chinese food. The influence of Indian food cultures has given this cuisine a complete makeover and as a result, very few authentic Chinese restaurants exist in India.
