Pineapple Fried Rice
I love serving thisfried rice in a halved pineapple boat, as it always impresses. Thai fried riceusually does not contain egg like the Chinese version does, and the addition ofcurry powder gives a color and flavor boost. I also like using Chinese sausage forthis rice, but you can use chicken breast, thighs or other proteins. If youwant some spice, add chili garlic sauce.

Krapow Moo Sap

Krapow Moo Sap

Street-Style Basil Pork
Basil pork is asubiquitous in Thai food as cheeseburgers are in American food. This is a streetfood version, very different from the one I shared in 101Asian Dishes. This one is distinctly Thai with the use of Thai oystersauce, sweet soy sauce and cut green beans. No bell peppers, and way more gravyand richness. I love this version over hot jasmine rice with a fried runny eggon top.

Ingrediënten

  • 4 tbsp 60 ml canola or other high-temperature cooking oil
  • 12 oz 340 g ground pork (ideally coarse ground)
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 –4 fresh Thai chilies minced
  • 2 cups 200 g green beans, cut into ¼-inch (6-mm) slices
  • 1 cup 240 ml chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp 30 ml sweet soy sauce
  • 1½ tbsp 23 ml fish sauce
  • 1½ tbsp 23 ml oyster sauce
  • 2 tsp 9 g msg
  • 2 cups 48 g holy or sweet basil leaves, loosely packed
  • 1 tsp white pepper
  • Cooked jasmine rice for serving
  • Fried runny eggs for serving

Instructies

  • Heat a heavy-bottomed 9- to 11-inch (23- to 28-cm) pan over high heat for about 1 minute to preheat.
  • Swirl in the oil, making sure to touch every inch of the pan.
  • When you see wisps of white smoke, add the ground pork and start to press down to spread it across the pan.
  • You want maximum coverage to use the pan’s surface area to start the browning.
  • Allow it to cook without stirring or breaking up the meat.
  • After about 1 to 2 minutes, the bottom of the pork will be light to medium brown.
  • Fold the pork over, making sure the raw side sears for another 2 minutes.
  • When the second side is light to medium brown, start breaking the pork into smaller bits.
  • Add the garlic, Thai chilies and chopped beans to the pan and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, until the garlic starts to brown and the beans turn from leathery to bright green.
  • Stir in the chicken stock and use it to scrape up any delicious bits stuck to the pan.
  • The stock will boil and start to reduce.
  • Reduce the stock by half, stirring occasionally, for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the sweet soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce and msg until well incorporated.
  • Let the sauce stay at a boil and continue to reduce until it thickens into a beautiful gravy.
  • Stir in the basil leaves during the last 30 seconds, but don’t let the sauce over-reduce; you want a decent amount of gravy left in the pan.
  • Divide among plates and top with white pepper.
  • Serve with rice and fried eggs.

Crispy Pork Belly
This is the crown jewelto many chefs and food aficionados. Taking a tough and fatty pork belly,cooking it with moist heat until tender and then frying it into crispy piecesis truly heaven. You can eat it over rice, add it to noodle dishes and stir-fryit with chili and basil. But no matter how you use it, learning how to makecrispy pork belly is a fundamental skill.
Share on Facebook Recept afdrukken

Ingrediënten

MAKES: 2 LBS (907 G)

  • 6 cups 1.4 L water
  • 5 tbsp 72 g kosher salt
  • 1 2–2.5 lb [907 g–1.2 kg] pork belly, center cut
  • Canola or other high-temperature cooking oil for frying

Instructies

  • Mix the water and salt in a pot big enough to hold the pork belly.
  • Cut the pork belly into two pieces lengthwise.
  • Soak the pork in the salt solution for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • Place the pot on the stove, position the pork so it is skin-side down, and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover loosely and cook for 1 hour.
  • Check occasionally that the pork is not stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  • After 1 hour, check the meat side for tenderness with a fork.
  • The fork should be able to pierce the meat, but it won’t be falling apart.
  • If you can’t pierce the meat, cook for an additional 20 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat, turn the pieces over so the skin is exposed to the air, and let the pork cool down in the liquid.
  • When cool, discard the liquid.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Then Swiss or pierce the skin, which creates pockets for the oil to penetrate the skin to fry and puff it up.
  • Just pierce the skin, don’t go too deep.
  • A meat tenderizer tool is best, but a fork or skewers held together with a rubber band will work.
  • Before baking, score the pork on the skin side to pre-mark the cut lines.
  • This will keep the pork from cracking later and will give you perfectly cut strips.
  • Score 1- to 2-inch (3- to 5-cm) sections just through the skin, about ⅛ inch (3 mm) deep.
  • Bake the pork pieces in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Remove the pork from the oven and allow it to dry, uncovered, in the fridge overnight.
  • The skin should be quite firm, like plastic or resin.
  • In a large pot, preheat enough oil to cover the pork to 400°F (205°C).
  • It may splatter so have a shield or lid ready.
  • Carefully lower the pork into the oil, skin-side down.
  • Fry for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Remove the pork to a rack to allow airflow all around until it cool to the touch.
  • Slice the pork into long strips, following the score lines.
  • Your pork belly is now ready to eat or use for multiple dishes like Stir-Fried Chinese Broccoli with Crispy Pork Belly (Khana Moo Krob), basil pork belly, a pork belly BBQ plate and more.

  • Stir in the fish sauce, msg and sugar until well combined.
  • Set aside.
  • Heat a heavy-bottomed, deep, 9- to 11-inch (23- to 28-cm) skillet or wok over high heat for about 1 minute to preheat.
  • Swirl in the oil, making sure to touch every inch of the pan.

  • Taste!
  • If lacking saltiness, add a pinch of salt, stir, then taste again.
  • To serve, place the shrimp paste fried rice in the center of a large platter and surround it with the garnishes, including omelet threads, sweet pork, carrot, cucumber, mango, shallots, Thai chilies, green beans and fried dried shrimp.
  • I like to use about ½ cup (weight varies) of each garnish for all 4 servings, except the dried shrimp which should be less at about ¼ cup (10 g) total.
  • These amounts can absolutely be tweaked to your taste.
  • Mix everything together and enjoy!

Khai Jiao

Thai Omelet
This omelet is simplebut has a very special place in everyone’s hearts. It’s the one dish every Thaicook must know how to make. It’s also the one dish you can find at any Thairestaurant or home, any time of day or night. Here I’m sharing the simpleclassic dish, plus a method to make egg threads to use as a garnish for Shrimp Paste Fried Rice (Khao Khluk Kapi).If you’d like to try variations, check out the Minced Pork Thai Omelet (Khai Jiao Moo Sab) for apopular version with ground pork and scallions.

Ingrediënten

MAKES: ONE 8-INCH (20-CM) OMELET, 2 SERVINGS, OR 1½ CUPS (375 G) OF EGG THREADS

  • 2 eggs
  • ½ tsp fish sauce
  • ½ tsp Thai soybean sauce
  • ½ tsp msg
  • ½ cup 120 ml canola or other high-temperature cooking oil (3 tbsp [45 ml] if making egg threads)
  • Pinch white pepper
  • 1 scallion sliced

Instructies

  • Cooked jasmine rice, for serving
  • Crack the eggs in a medium bowl and whisk with a fork for about 30 seconds until the whites and yolks are evenly mixed.
  • Add the fish sauce, seasoning sauce and msg.
  • Continue to whisk for another 30 seconds, until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the eggs are pale yellow and fluffy.
  • Heat a wok or 8- to 10-inch (20- to 25-cm) skillet over high heat.
  • Add the oil to the pan and heat until it reaches about 375°F (190°C).
  • (See Pro Tip.)
  • Pour in the egg and immediately reduce the heat to medium.
  • The egg will start to bubble; don’t pop the bubbles or push them down.
  • Carefully spoon some of the hot oil over the top of the omelet, to get the center to bubble up and cook evenly.
  • When the entire bottom is a deep golden brown, carefully turn the omelet over, making sure not to press it down—you want to encourage expansion.
  • Continue to spoon oil over the top until it’s evenly deep golden brown and set.
  • Remove the omelet to a wire rack and allow it to drain for 30 seconds.
  • Sprinkle with white pepper and scallion and serve hot with the rice.
  • Egg Thread Variation
  • Heat a wok or 8- to 10-inch (20- to 25-cm) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add only 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of oil to the pan and heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
  • Pour in the egg and immediately reduce the heat to medium.
  • Spread the egg out over the entire pan and allow it to coagulate and solidify slowly.
  • When the egg is firm enough to flip, turn it over in the pan and cook for an additional minute, until lightly brown and solid.
  • Using a silicone spatula, start with a corner and roll it over on itself.
  • When you have formed a tight roll, transfer it to a cutting board and allow it to cool.
  • Slice into ⅛- to ¼-inch (3- to 6-mm) strips.

Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:

Pro Tip:
If you’re making the regular omelet (not the egg threads), resist the urge to use less oil or you’ll end up with a flat, limp omelet.

Thai Street-Style Chicken Fried Rice
It’s undeniable thatfried rice originated in China, but it’s fascinating to track the evolution andvariations of it in each country it traveled through. Even in China it can varyimmensely. The hallmarks of Thai fried rice are fish sauce, Chinese broccoliand tomato. They add a very distinct flavor to the Thai version. I think it’smore substantial and full of “stuff” than its Hong Kong cousin. Do check outthe Cantonese version in my other cookbook. Chinese and Thai fried rice areboth delicious and will teach you two very different approaches to fried rice.

Share on Facebook Recept afdrukken

Ingrediënten

MAKES: ABOUT 21 OUNCES (600 G) OF NOODLES, ABOUT 5 CUPS ONCE SEPARATED

  • 2 cups 316 g rice flour
  • 3 tbsp 24 g tapioca starch (or cornstarch)
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 2 cups 480 ml water
  • 1 tsp canola or other high-temperature cooking oil plus more for brushing

Instructies

  • Add the rice flour, tapioca starch, salt and water to a mixing bowl.
  • Whisk until the flour, starch and salt dissolve.
  • Add the oil and strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into another bowl.
  • Cover the liquid and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • While the mixture is resting, gather a wok and two flat-bottomed pans that fit comfortably inside of it.
  • If you don’t have a wok, use a large, deep cooking vessel with a wide opening and a lid.
  • Fill the wok with water and bring it to a boil.
  • (You might need to add more water throughout the cooking process. The goal is to have the pan float on top of the boiling water. )
  • Brush a light coating of oil on the bottom of the flat-bottomed pan, put the pan on top of the boiling water, and add ¼ cup (60 ml) of the rice liquid to the pan.
  • Tilt it a little so the rice liquid covers the bottom of the pan.
  • Now, cover with the wok or pot lid and cook over high heat for 3 minutes.
  • If your flat-bottomed pan has a thicker bottom, such as Pyrex, increase the cooking time to 5 or 7 minutes.
  • While it’s cooking, brush the second pan lightly with oil.
  • After 5 minutes, remove the lid, take out the first pan, and set it aside.
  • Place the oiled second pan on top of the water in the wok.
  • Add ¼ cup (60 ml) of the rice mixture.
  • Tilt it a little so the rice liquid evenly covers the bottom, cover with the lid, and let cook.
  • While it’s cooking, attend to the first pan.
  • Brush a cutting board with a thin layer of oil to prevent sticking.
  • Use a rubber spatula to loosen all sides of the sheet of noodle, and slowly lift it up and off the pan.
  • Lay it flat on the cutting board and brush it with more oil.
  • By now, your second pan is probably ready to come out of the wok.
  • Brush the first noodle sheet with a thin layer of oil, then layer the second sheet on top.
  • Brush the bottom of the first pan with some more oil and get ready to make your third batch.
  • Depending on what pans you are using, you can adjust the amount of batter to make the noodles thicker or thinner as you wish.
  • Repeat the above steps until all of the noodle batter is gone.
  • Don’t forget to brush oil between the layers of noodle sheets to prevent sticking.
  • When all the noodle sheets are made, cut them into ⅓-inch (10-mm) strips, but feel free to cut them in whatever sizes and shapes you like.
  • Then, toss the noodles, loosening each layer to separate them.
  • Now the rice noodles are ready to be used!
  • Store the noodles, covered, outside the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • If you intend to store them longer, wrap them tightly and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • They might harden slightly, but they should bounce back nicely once heated.
  • Enjoy your homemade noodles!

Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:

Pro Tip:

If you can’t find rice flour, place 2 cups (390 g) of dry white rice in a blender and blend on high for about 1 minute. Strain through a sieve and you’ve just made rice flour.
