Chicken Thai Stir Fry


Hey guys, it's me the Bombay chef Varun Inamdar and welcome to “Get Curried”. Today's is of course a chicken recipe and this today is my most favorite flavor and that is Thai. Well it has a lot of Thai , you can of course use some, avoid some make it completely personal, what I'm making is fried chicken Thai style.

Let's begin with making a . Well otherwise, ideally, you're supposed to chop this or slice this but I'm making your and my life absolutely a breeze. So first things first, , lots of it in a . To this, I'm going to add in basil. Now you could take hot basil, sweet basil, Thai basil, this one is Thai basil, to this I'm going to add in roughly cut onions, you could also take of course because it's all going to get just blitz. I'm going to add in some knobs of ginger, ginger galangal, which is like a Thai ginger, if you may say so, and I'm going to spike this up with some Thai . Now these are spicy like a rocket literally, so use your discretion, I like it spicy so I'm just going to remove the stalk and use four, five of them, but you can start with one or maybe just half, trust me it is spicy.

I am using five of them, really bold but that's how I like it, just a blitz or two, and you're done ready. that's the first one, that's the second one and we should be done. There you have this, literally Thai out of a grinder jar. Let's bring all of this together and it's done ready. Let's move on to the next step and that is heating a on . In the wok, oil, now this is regular vegetable oil but if you want this nutty, you can also add and that should also work perfect. By all means, you can also throw in some peanuts at this stage, let it get nice and golden and brown in color, that's also good, you can also throw in some whole , because with this, a little bit of a nutty bite would just work like magic.

The oil is heated up. Let's add in this wonderful spice mix, and frankly, by all means, this is where the entire flavor lies. And like I said, you can avoid a few ingredients, personalize it, make it completely personal. Ensure that the raw flavor, kind of goes away, you may add in some more oil considering the fact that this may stick at the bottom, but again your choice. The spiced mix has cooked well, with this I'm going to the flame and add in literally all the other ingredients. The first one is boneless of chicken which is sliced and ready. To this, I'm going to add in some shredded vegetables, in this case, and carrots, with a little bit of , while this is also completely optional you could substitute this with mushrooms if you like, or or , or peppers, just tastes wonderful, just ensure that it's nice colorful and vibrant.
To this, I'm also going to add in bean sprouts, a touch of sugar .Well it's nice to make something Thai in flavor because it's a of literally all your flavors, it's sour, it's spicy, it's sweet, it's literally everything.

To this I'm adding in kaffir which are again optional but if you can lay your hands on these, nothing like it. In case this becomes, of course it's an exotic leaf, in case you do not get this, or it's not available in the market, what you could add is because that also gives a wonderful lemony note. Some , this is light soya, so you can add in a little more, if it's dark, just half a tablespoon for this, it's just perfect and finally salt as required. With this, we're going to the flame and ensure that the heat builds up, the builds up because that's where the chicken just kind of starts cooking at the bottom and that's where flipping, stirring, becomes easier.

So let's wait for that, a minute on high flame, and we should be good. A quick few tosses, and just ensure that the chicken is perfectly cooked. With the slices, it will not take more than three to four minutes to cook on high flame. Well if you have your own domestic burners, this may take a little longern but ensure that the flame is constantly high. Well my mouth is already salivating and this is done and ready. Let's serve this. Do not forget to the bottom and literally scrape all those little burnt pieces because that's also going to add layers of flavor. Finally some more greens right on top and with this your Thai stir-fried chicken is done and ready well if you like this video, do not forget to like, share, comment and stay tuned to “Get carried”.
