Singaporean Rice

First of all I have no idea why this dish is called Singaporean Rice....According to my research there is no dish by said name or taste in Singapore! nonetheless this rice is delicious! full of flavor. Im realizing just now that this is a complicated dish too... hmmmm maybe I like to make complicated, multi step dishes. Oh well!!

I have fused two maybe three recipes to form this one. Its delicious and worth the effort! =)

I like it to serve in individual servings but it can be served family style the same way.

To make individual servings follow these steps.

1. Spread rice

2. Pour 1/2- 1 Tbsp Mayo sauce on rice.

3. Top with spaghetti.

4. Add chicken masala

5. Top with green chilies, ginger, garlic and onions.

ENJOY!
