JACK IS BACK: COOKING THAI BASIL FRIED RICE!

April 2, 2010

Today, Princess Know It All is cooking fried Rice with Jack!

Yahoo fo’ Basil Stir Fried Rice, Jack came to town and I learned to get down with my Thai food! So here is what you do:


Heat your skillet, add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil & 1 tablespoon of Sesame Oil.  Once the oil is heated up add your onions, garlic & ginger; once the onions are translucent add your red & green peppers, followed by your carrots – you can steam your carrots if need be in advance.  If not give the carrots a few minutes by covering the pan.  If your digestion is strong then eat ‘em slightly crunchy!  Move all the veggies to the side, in the empty space add your steamed tofu and break it up into crumbles.  Get the seasoning of the pan all over the tofu!  Once it’s heated blend it into your veggies – you can use an egg in the same way.  Allow your veggies and tofu to cook together for a few minutes, meanwhile add your TUMERIC.  Now that your veggies are soft add your shitake mushrooms, mixing them in.  The best part -time for the THAI BASIL – I like TONS of it, gosh I LOVE this flavor – if you can’t find Thai Basil use regular basil it’s just as good fo’you!

Now toss in some cilantro – optional but the combo of the two herbs is BANGIN!  Now that the veggies & Tofu are cooked add in your leftover brown rice (you can use any type of rice or Quinoa).  Add Tamari (soy sauce) and Fish Sauce, spritz some fresh lime juice and add fresh cherry tomatoes if you like and get down and grub!
