"Kow Pad Moo Apple" (Pork Fried Rice With Apple)


Fried rice is a popular dish,served with cucumber,a wedge of lime,green onions(Ton Hom).The most popular fried rice is "crab fried rice",but for me... my favourite dish is pork fried rice(Kow Pad Moo).'Moo' is Thai word which means 'pig'. Fried rice is a good way to clean the refrigerator since most any vegetables and meats you have in your freezer will be used.For meats,you can use almost any kind of meats such as canned crab,bacon,ham,tofu,hot dogs,chicken,pork,beef,sea food,.. Any vegetables will do too!!!Thai fried rice gets much of its unique flavor the mix of fish sauce,soy sauce,chili peppers,green onions and lime.
"Pork Fried Rice With Apple"

Ingredients:For 3-4 servings!
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tomato,thinly sliced
3-4 tablespoons soy sauce
- pinch ground pepper
1 tbsp fish sauce
(If you are vegetarian ,so don't use fish sauce and meats ,but you can use soy sauce and tofu or only eggs!)
2 cups cooked rice
1/3 cup pork
1 lime
2 green onions
2-3 chili peppers,minced
4 cloves garlic,minced
2 eggs(but for me,I prefer the chicken egg)
1/4 cup carrot,chopped
1/4 cup apple,choppe
(You can add more any vegetables that you have!)
1 teaspoon sugar

Method
Let's go!Pour the vegetable oil in the bottom of a wok.I suggest cooking this while you have clothes on. If you cook this naked, you run the risk of serious injury as the hot oil in the wok will spit at you when you do the next step. Is the oil hot? Add garlic and fry until yellow and then add pork stir it until it starts to cook a little white.Make room for the eggs by pushing all to the
side of the wok.Crack the eggs onto the wok and scramble it until it is almost all cooked and then add the cooked rice in a wok stir about 2-3 minutes and then throw the whole vegetable in a wok except tomato. Mix and keep the heat on medium, and constantly stir. If you don't, you'll form a thermal rice barrier on the bottom of the wok. Add soy sauce, sugar and taste it.Yummy Yummy!!!. Add pepper if you wish,but for me I like to add pepper too cause *pepper* is good for Health,right???The last thing is to add the tomato and stir a few more times.
To serve,put fried rice on the serving plate.Sprinkle with green onions , sliced cucumber and a wedge of lime.
Put chili peppers and mix with 2 tablespoons fish sauce or soy sauce in a small bowl,and save with fried rice.
Take your dish and enjoy in front of the television cause 20.30 the "Big Brother"in Norwegian and Swedish version has just started hehehe!!! but for me I prefer to watch good films or travelling programs.
Enjoy your food!
