Thai Basil Pork with Steamed Rice

Ingredients

• 1 cup jasmine rice
• 1 pound ground pork
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 cup Thai basil leaves fresh
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 medium red chilies sliced

Instructions

1. 1 Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Add rice and 1 1/2 cups of water to a pot and bring to a boil.
2. 2 Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.
3. 3 Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced chilies, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. 4 Add ground pork to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until the pork is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
5. 5 In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Pour the sauce over the pork and stir to combine.
6. 6 Add fresh Thai basil leaves to the pan and stir-fry until the leaves are wilted and the sauce is evenly distributed.
7. 7 Serve the Thai basil pork hot, accompanied by steamed jasmine rice.
