I keep kosher, so I substituted some home-made teriyaki sauce, in place of the fish sauce (chicken and fish cannot be mixed in the same dish.) It was absolutely amazing and it tasted just like the basil fried rice I have enjoyed in local restaurants.

Ingredients

Directions

Thai Spicy Basil Fried Rice,This is a great use of leftover rice. It’s important to use Thai sweet basil to get the authentic Thai restaurant taste. And don’t skip the fish sauce, it smells strong in the bottle, but it blends in nicely with the other ingredients when it’s all put together. Also, make sure you use chilled rice, or you’ll end up with mush.,I keep kosher, so I substituted some home-made teriyaki sauce, in place of the fish sauce (chicken and fish cannot be mixed in the same dish.) It was absolutely amazing and it tasted just like the basil fried rice I have enjoyed in local restaurants.,This was phenomenal. I added a little extra rice and oyster sauce, as well as Thai Golden Mountain seasoning sauce (maybe half a teaspoon?), and used chicken instead. I also used thai soy sauce instead of Japanese. It was INCREDIBLE. Everyone said it was better than their favorite thai restaurants. The garlic and thai basil (rather than italian basil) made a world of difference. Highly recommend!!
