De bereidingswijze
Stap voor stap
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the cooked jasmine rice, red curry paste, coconut milk, egg, and all-purpose flour.
Ongeveer 3 min
Tip van de kok: Ensure the rice is cool so it doesn't cook the egg when mixing.
- 2
Mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined and the mixture can be formed into small patties.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Wear gloves if you prefer not to touch the mixture directly.
- 3
Form the rice mixture into small, flat patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: Don't make them too thick, as they need to crisp up evenly.
- 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or deep pan over medium-high heat to about 175°C (350°F).
Ongeveer 3 min
Tip van de kok: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for even frying.
- 5
Carefully fry the rice patties in batches until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Ongeveer 10 min
Tip van de kok: Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature and make the patties soggy.
- 6
Remove the fried rice patties with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: The wire rack helps maintain crispiness by allowing air circulation.
- 7
Once cooled slightly, break the crispy rice patties into small, bite-sized pieces.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: They should be crunchy and hold their shape.
- 8
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled naem, chopped roasted peanuts, sliced shallot, julienned ginger, fresh mint leaves, chopped cilantro, and sliced scallion.
Ongeveer 3 min
- 9
Add the broken crispy rice pieces to the bowl with the other ingredients.
Ongeveer 1 min
- 10
In a small bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and chili flakes to make the dressing.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Taste and adjust the dressing to your preference; it should be a balance of sweet, sour, and spicy.
- 11
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine everything thoroughly.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Toss just before serving to keep the crispy rice from getting too soggy.
- 12
Serve immediately, optionally alongside fresh lettuce leaves for wrapping.
