THAI FRIED RICE


I posted in my FB yesterday and a friend from Texas requested for the recipe..so I hope this can help. It is easy for us in Asia to get the ingredients but as people outside Asia...the Asia market would be the best place to get the ingredients. This Thai Style fried rice required unique ingredients as the Tom Yam paste, and kaffir leaf. Kaffir leaf enhance the aroma of the rice. (you can skip if you dont have). The highlight is always the tom yam paste.  If you love it hot and spicy add more bird's eyes chili.  For extra dose serve with chicken nugget or fried chicken.
