Khao kan chin
Khao kan chin, also known as Thai crispy rice, is a popular dish in Thai cuisine. It is made by frying leftover cooked rice until it becomes crispy and golden brown. The crispy rice is then usually served with a variety of toppings and sauces, such as minced pork, fried shallots, sliced cucumber, and spicy dipping sauces.
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old rice)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Toppings of your choice:
Instructions
- In a large non-stick pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add the cooked rice to the pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle salt evenly over the rice.
- Let the rice cook undisturbed for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the bottom layer to crisp up and turn golden brown.
- Once the bottom layer is crispy, use a spatula to flip the rice over in sections, so the other side can crisp up as well. It’s okay if some rice pieces stick together.
- Continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the rice is crispy and golden brown all over.
- Remove the crispy rice from the pan and transfer it to a serving plate or bowl.
- Serve the Khao kan chin with your choice of toppings, such as minced pork, fried shallots, and sliced cucumber.
- You can also serve it with a spicy dipping sauce if you like.
