Sweet Corn Fried Rice (Step by Step)

May 16, 2020 by maria 3 Comments

Sweet Corn Fried Rice Recipe made quickly and with basic ingredient’s. This dish serves great as a lunch box, brunch, quick meal or when you have less time. I made this dish merely in 30 min’s including the cooking of rice and boiling sweet corn 🙂

Sweet Corn Fried Rice (Step by Step)

If you precooked the rice and boiled the corn earlier. Then it would take just about 3-4 min’s to make this fried rice. Since sweet corn is the hero I haven’t used any other veggies but you cold use mushroom, capsicum, carrot, french bean etc to make them healthy.

I usually make a different kind of rice recipes home as we both love rice. So any good recipe is always welcomed and relished. We ate our sweet corn rice with chilly potatoes along with some Szechuan sauce. You could even club with Manchurian or some oriental gravy based dish.

To give an authentic Chinese touch have used Sichuan pepper powder along some black pepper powder. If you don’t have Sichuan pepper just skip them. However, they do impart a great flavor and aroma to your rice. Sweet corn gives a sweet flavor whereas the chilies and sauce give a nice hot and tangy flavor.

If sweet corn isn’t available use the regular corn. But the taste would be different so preferably use sweet corn or canned sweet corn. Have added some fried cashews but that’s optional.

Let’s make sweet corn fried rice recipe stepwise:

1. Firstly boil rice or pressure cook rice until 3 whistles. Strain them on a colander and allow to cool. I have used saffron strands but they are optional.

2. Similarly, boil or steam corn until they are soft and tender.

3. I make my secret Chinese spice by taking equal part of Sichuan pepper (teppal or trifal) and pepper corn. Roast them for a minute.

4. Then dry grind them until a coarse powder is formed. Now use only 1 tbsp of this grounded powder and reserve the rest for future use.
