Vegetarian Thai Fried Rice Recipes

Steps:

• To start with uncooked rice, start with 2 cups raw rice, cook, spread out on a baking pan to cool, and then refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Prepare the garnishes: cut the scallions on a slight diagonal into 1-inch lengths, cut the cucumber into very thin slices, cut the lime into wedges; set aside.
• Heat a wok or large frying pan over high heat and add the oil.
• When the oil is very hot and slightly smoking, add the garlic, onion, and black pepper and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
• Add the green beans and corn and continue to stir-fry for 3 minutes.
• Add the cold cooked rice and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
• Add the soy sauce and curry paste and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
• Garnish with the scallions, cucumber, and lime, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Rinse rice a few times under cold running water until water runs clear.
• Bring rice, water, and coconut water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Heat oil in a wok or large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add red bell pepper, ginger, and lemongrass. Allow to cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Add curry paste and mix until well combined. Add cooked rice and mix well. Move rice mixture to one side of the wok and crack eggs into the wok. Cook and stir eggs until set and scrambled, about 3 minutes. Mix scrambled egg with rice mixture. Add frozen vegetables and mix well. Stir in coconut milk.
• Remove from heat and sprinkle with Thai basil.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet or wok.
• Add ginger and garlic and stir fry for 1-2 minutes.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• In the same pan add peas and red pepper.
• Stir fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
• Remove and set aside.
• Add the cold rice to the skillet and heat thoroughly.
• With a spoon make a hole in the center of the rice pushing the rice to the sides.
• Add the beaten eggs into the center without touching the rice.
• Stir the eggs until pretty well set then start incorporating the rice into them.
• Add the chopped tomatoes.
• Return the reserved ginger, garlic, peas and red pepper to the pan.
• Mix in the chili paste, soy sauce and lime juice.
• Serve with chopped scallions as a garnish.
