I'm not really a fried rice lover but my girl is!. So ..researched for some great fried rice recipes and found this one which I really love. Very uniquely Thai.! Hmmm... imagine this ....the aromatic smell of fresh sweet basil ... Yum yum!!

4 cups cooked rice ( I suggest Thai fragrant rice)

1 chicken breast or cutlets - thinly sliced (sometimes I substitute with prawns too)

6 cloves garlic

2-5 bird chili (chili padi) - roughly pounded with the garlic

1 whole bell pepper (cut into strips and halved)

1 full cup of fresh basil

2 tablespoon of vegetable oil

2-3 tablespoon fish sauce

1 tablespoon sugar

 In a wok, heat the oil and put in the chili and garlic paste. Stir in the chicken meat and add the oyster sauce, fish sauce and sugar. Turn the heat on high.Add in the rice and the bell pepper. 

Just before turning off the heat put in the basil leaves and...

this one is with prawns ...

...... BOY!!

So...the next time you see those fresh basil at the market, grab a  bunch or two and put this up on the menu....
