Procedure

For the Brown Rice:

• Take a pressure cooker and fill the bottom with about ½ cup of water.
• In a small pressure cooker bowl (that fits into the cooker, based on its size), add the brown rice(thoroughly washed).
• Pour in water into the rice-bowl enough to cover upto approximately ½ inch over the rice level.
• Close the pressure cooker, along with a whistle on top. 
• Turn the flame onto medium and place the cooker over it. 
• Allow 3-4 whistles to pass, after which reduce the flame to a simmer for 5 minutes and eventually switch off the stove.
• Allow the heat to escape and only then open the cooker after about 10-15 minutes. Your rice is ready.

For the Fried Rice:

• In a non-stick wok/kadhai add the ghee and coconut oil. Turn the stove onto high flame mode. 
• Add the garlic and chillies and saute till the smell of garlic makes your taste buds go crazy ! 
• Add in the onions and saute till translucent. Put in the cabbage and saute well.
• Now go onto putting in the capsicum,carrots,and boiled other veggies.Saute until they smell and look nice & cooked. 
• It's finally time to add in the cooked brown rice. 
• Sprinkle the soya sauce,vinegar and black salt into the rice.
• You've got a super-yum homemade healthy fried rice, right in front of you. Go ahead and serve it hot!

~Zesty Ideas:

• Spread the rice out into a flat bowl, to cool faster. You can add some ghee into the rice to seperate out the grains well and then freeze the rice for 20 minutes for better results! 
• If you love spice the way I do make some chilli garlic/ homemade schezwan sauce and add in, to your heart's content! . ~
