Step 1: Gather Ingredients
To start, you'll need to collect all the necessary ingredients. Here's what you'll need:
- 2 cups of jasmine rice (cooked and cooled)
- 2 tablespoons of shrimp paste (kapi)
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of fish sauce
- 1/2 cup of shredded coconut (optional)
- 1/2 cup of chopped vegetables (carrots, green beans, etc.)
- 2 eggs
- Fresh herbs (coriander and spring onions)
- Lime wedges for serving
- Optional toppings: fried shallots, chili, and peanuts
Step 2: Prepare the Rice
Preparation is key to achieving the best flavor.
- If you haven't done so already, cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions. Allow it to cool completely.
- Once cooled, break up any clumps of rice with a fork to ensure even cooking later.
Step 3: Cook the Base
Now, it's time to infuse the rice with flavor.
- Heat a large pan or wok over medium heat.
- Add the shrimp paste and cook for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in the sugar and fish sauce, mixing well.
- Add the cooled rice to the pan and stir continuously to coat the rice evenly with the mixture.
Step 4: Add Vegetables and Eggs
Incorporating vegetables and eggs will enhance the dish's nutrition and taste.
- Add the chopped vegetables to the rice and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender.
- Push the rice mixture to one side of the pan.
- Crack the eggs into the empty side of the pan, scrambling them until fully cooked.
- Mix the scrambled eggs into the rice until everything is combined.
Step 5: Serve the Khao Kluk Kapi
Presentation is important in Thai cuisine.
- Transfer the rice to a serving platter.
- Top with shredded coconut, fresh herbs, and optional toppings like fried shallots and chili.
- Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
