Spring Onion Stir Fry

Roughly chopped spring onions are finely sauteed along with freshly pound coconut , fried gram masala.

Spring Onions are widely used in chinese cuisine and I generally use spring onion for garnishing my fried rice, noodles, wraps and so on, but I thought of preparing a simple saute kind of recipe which goes perfect with hot rice. This is a very easy stir fry that serves as a accompaniment with roti, bread.

To make use of abundance spring onions, this recipe is the best and tastes too good. Spring onions helps to speed up the level of blood circulation in the body. It is often used as a medicine for cold and helps in digestion. This is again a recipe from my MIL cooking which like a lot. Try this easy and quick stir fry at times when you find oodles of spring onions in market.
