Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Jasmine rice
- 1 pound Ground pork
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 Thai bird's eye chilies, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 cup Fresh Thai basil leaves
- 2 Green onion, sliced
- 4 Lime wedges
Instructions
Rinse the jasmine rice under running water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Set aside to cool slightly.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped Thai bird's eye chilies to the skillet. Stir-fry for 30 seconds or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the ground pork and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until fully cooked and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the fish sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Pour the mixture over the cooked pork and stir until well combined.
Add the cooked jasmine rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with your spatula. Stir-fry the rice with the pork and sauce mixture for 2-3 minutes until evenly coated and heated through.
Turn off the heat and mix in the fresh Thai basil leaves and sliced green onion. Stir until the basil is wilted and fragrant.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for a fresh burst of acidity.
