A restaurant style Spicy basil fried rice is onof our favorite meals and is on regular rotation in our household. I planted a few Thai basil plants a few years ago that have diligently come back every year. I throw them in all my Asian recipes from Thai stir fries to salads. This past week when the temperature dropped into the 30s at night I saw them slowly wither away. So yesterday I picked all the remaining leaves and made a huge batch of this favorite fried rice with string green beans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What I love with the homemade version is that you can replicate the restaurant recipes and control the oil and boost the flavors with more aromatics. Thai basil is easy to find in Asian markets or you can totally use Italian basil, either ways this is worth making. I love it spicy so I go with 4-5 red hot chillies but you can tone it down with one or none, its still very good. This recipe is very forgiving and adaptable with any protein. Works great with crumbled tofu or thinly chicken or just 2 cups of fresh veggies(my favorite<\/em>) Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
