Ingredients

Adjust Servings:
4 cups cooked cold jasmine rice (cold rice is essential so the grains will not stick together when stir frying)
3 tablespoons peanut oil
4 cloves freshly minced garlic
1 1/2 1 1/2 cups lean pork (its easiest to get thin slices if the meat is still partially frozen) or 1 1/2 cups beef, thinly sliced (its easiest to get thin slices if the meat is still partially frozen)
2 eggs
4 green onions, sliced thin
2 teaspoons palm sugar (table sugar is fine if you can't find palm sugar)

Moms Thai Fried Rice

    This is as close to my mom's recipe as I can get with actual measurements since she eyeballs the ingredients and never measures. It is a "classic" version, and not the spicy or pineapple version you so often see in Thai restaurants. She is a native of Thailand and owned her own fantastic Thai restaurant for many years. This recipe is one of my favorites because it is so easy. The key is to use leftover, cold, jasmine rice and Thai fish sauce ONLY, no soy sauce or it will be Chinese fried rice. Serve this with Nam Prik Nam Pla Sauce Recipe #92042 to add a little spice and something extra to this dish!

    Mom’s Thai Fried Rice,This is as close to my mom’s recipe as I can get with actual measurements since she eyeballs the ingredients and never measures. It is a “classic” version, and not the spicy or pineapple version you so often see in Thai restaurants. She is a native of Thailand and owned her own fantastic Thai restaurant for many years. This recipe is one of my favorites because it is so easy. The key is to use leftover, cold, jasmine rice and Thai fish sauce ONLY, no soy sauce or it will be Chinese fried rice. Serve this with Nam Prik Nam Pla Sauce Recipe #92042 to add a little spice and something extra to this dish!,used Trader Joe’s frozen microwave Jasmine rice and – since TJ’s didn’t have fish or Oyster sauce – used their green Thai curry instead. It came out GREAT!
