STIR-FRIED RICE WITH AMARANTH OR RED CHARD AND THAI BASIL

This is another Thai-influenced dish, spiced with sriracha and featuring the beautiful green vegetable amaranth. Amaranth is a beautiful green with small red and green leaves that grow, bush-like, off medium-thick stems. I get it from Asian vendors at the farmers' market, where I can also find Thai basil. I cut away the very tough ends but use the more tender parts of the stalks. A good substitute here would be red chard, whose stems can be diced and included in the stir-fry. You could also use beet greens, but I'd omit the stringy stems. I spiced this Thai-influenced stir-fry with sriracha, but that spicy chili sauce is optional.

Stir-fried Rice With Amaranth or Red Chard and Thai Basil image

Steps:

  • Beat one of the eggs in a bowl and season with a pinch of salt. Prepare remaining ingredients and place in separate bowls within arm's reach of your burner.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Add 3/4 easpoon of the oil to the wok or pan and swirl to coat the sides. Make sure that bottom wok or pan is coated with oil and add beaten egg, swirling the pan so that egg forms a thin pancake. Cook 30 seconds to a minute, until set. Using a spatula, turn pancake over and cook for 5 to 10 more seconds, until thoroughly set, then transfer to a plate or cutting board. Season to taste. Allow to cool, then roll up or fold in half and cut into strips or just break up with edge of spatula . Repeat with remaining eggs.
  • Swirl remaining oil into wok or pan and add garlic and ginger. Stir-fry no more than 10 secods, and add amaranth or chard, and white parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for 2 minutes and add Thai basil; stir together for a few seconds, then add rice. Stir-fry, scooping up the rice with your spatula, then pressing it into the hot wok and scooping it up again, for about 2 minutes. The rice should sear and stick to the sides of the wok. Add soy sauce, sriracha, pepper, green part of the scallions, and eggs and cilantro, stir for about 30 seconds, scraping the rice off the sides of the wok as it sticks. Remove from the heat. Serve hot.

THAI SPICY BASIL CHICKEN FRIED RICE

This is a staple of Thai cooking. Adjust the spices to your own tastes for a really great use for leftover rice!! I get the basil from a local Asian market. It has a different flavor than that of regular basil and makes all the difference in this recipe. It is fast and fairly easy to make, but requires constant stirring.

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.

THAI COMBINATION FRIED RICE

This dish is loosely based on Thailand's ubiquitous fried rice dish, kao pad. Usually some kind of animal protein accompanies the rice - squid, crabmeat, ham, chicken, whatever the cook has on hand. My version relies instead on tofu and vegetables; the most important ingredients are the rice itself, the garlic and the fish sauce. Have all of your ingredients prepared and close to the stove. Cooking goes very quickly.

Thai Combination Fried Rice image

Steps:

  • Heat a large wok or large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water evaporates upon contact. Add the oil and swirl, then add the carrot and tofu. Stir-fry until lightly colored, about two minutes. Add the garlic and stir-fry until golden, about 30 seconds. Pour in the beaten egg. Stir-fry until scrambled, then add the rice. Cook the rice - scooping it up and pressing it into the pan, then scooping it up again - for about two minutes. Add the fish, chile sauces, tomato and chopped scallions, then stir together for about a half-minute. Serve, garnishing each plate with the cilantro and cucumbers and passing lime wedges, scallions and fish sauce with chiles. Diners should squeeze lime juice onto their rice as they eat.

4 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
8 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1 large carrot, peeled and diced small or cut in julienne
4 ounces tofu, patted dry and cut in 1/2-inch dice

1 tomato, chopped
1 bunch scallions, both white and green parts, chopped
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Thinly sliced cucumber
Lime wedges
Scallions
