Cooking tips

  • Stir-frying shrimp in butter instead of cooking oil doubles the savory flavor and gives the ingredients a golden coating.
  • Use day-old cold jasmine rice to prevent stickiness and achieve a chewy, separate grain texture.
  • You can use regular Italian basil instead of Thai basil and still bring out its characteristic fragrant flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to easily make Southeast Asian restaurant-style seafood fried rice at home.
  • Those who want a unique one-bowl meal that combines buttery aroma with fragrant basil.
