Sweet Corn Fried Rice Recipe

Fried Rice is our family favourite......Hubby can have fried rice even daily...yes he is crazy after fried rice and his staple order in restaurants will be egg / veg fried rice. Mittu loves any fried rice so its one of the ways I sneak in all the veggies. When I pack fried rice for mittus lunchbox I skip the sauces and make it simple more with indian flavours so wanted to post this easy fried rice recipe.I usually cut all the veggies the previous night itself while watching TV so making fried rice becomes easy for me.....I don't watch serials much but this serial uyirmei on Zee Tamil has got me addicted for a while now so am regularly watching it ....apart from that I watch Office serial on and off.
