ChiThai Fried Rice Reipe

ChiThai Fried Rice

I love fried rice and I love Thai food, I will admit more than Chinese food. So I thought I would dress up my usual shrimp fried rice and add a little Thai kick to it.

Ingredients
2 cups day old rice
1 1/2 lb shrimp
1 1/12 cup of frozen or fresh carrots and green peas
3 eggs
2 cloves garlic
1 bunch or two pcks basil *not dried*
1 small onion
handful of sprouts
(optional) handful of cherry sweet tomatoes
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tbsp of red thai curry paste
1 tsp red chilli oil
1 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp high heat oil * I use avocado oil*


Peel,devein and rinse shrimp then. Place in ice water and put to the side. *if your using* Rinse and pit cherry tomatoes. Rinse and chop the basil, dice the small onion, grate the garlic and place on a chopping board or in a container. Place medium size pan on medium heat and add high heat oil. Crack 3 eggs, beat and scramble in pan. Push eggs to the side of the pan and add in shrimp. Once the shrimp is cooked, pour shrimp then eggs on top in a container and place to the side. In the same pan add in the frozen peas and carrots, onion and garlic. Once the water is out of the frozen veggies, add in the basil and sprouts. In a container add soy sauce, sesame oil, red chilli oil, curry paste and mix well. Add rice to the pan and then pour in sauce mixture. Fold everything together in the pot and add eggs and shrimp.
