Vagharela Bhaat, Gujarati Leftover Fried Rice recipe

Khyati
Vagharela Bhaat is simply stir-fried rice with Potatoes, Onions, Green Chillies plus turmeric for that lovely yellow colour and lots of flavour, something my grandmother loves to make for Breakfast or Dinner with leftover rice. Adding Mixed vegetables, like Sweet corn, Peas or Carrots gives it a lovely hint of something charred, a touch of sweetness and a delicate crunch.
