Talimpu Annam (Simple Fried Rice)

Talimpu Annam is made of left over rice. It does not have any purticular procedure to make it. The process varies from person to person. Basically it is a variation to the lemon rice or fried rice. It is made of whatever ingredients available at our home. Basically "Talimpu" means seasoning with all basic ingredients. In childhood I never used to eat any vegetables, so my mom used to make this rice which makes me to eat and feel hungry.
