It is a very simple dish which is originally from china but made suitable for Indian palettes with the usage of ginger garlic paste and red chillies. It is totally yummy and awesomely simple to cook.The vibrant red colour brings the dish this unique name.It is a personal hit at my kitchen too. Specially when you have a Yo-Yo type teenage boy at home, I suggest this dish for you as he is gonna give that rare compliment you are badly craving for; ” Cool mom” 😉
