How to Make Thai Beef With Chiles And Basil
- Rinse the Jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, 3/4 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.
- While the rice is cooking, whisk together the fish sauce, soy sauce, and brown sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.
- Add the minced garlic and half of the sliced chilies. Stir-fry for 15 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the beef (or ground turkey) and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until browned. If using ground turkey, break it up with a spoon as it cooks.
- Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and stir-fry for 30 seconds until heated through.
- Stir in the fresh basil leaves and the remaining chilies.
- Serve the Thai Beef Stir-fry immediately over the cooked rice. Garnish with extra chilies, if desired.
