ASIAN MEATBALLS WITH RICE NOODLES



Asian Meatballs With Rice Noodles image

Submitted for RSC #9. This whole recipe was a new experience for me...I was so happy it worked out! I made it as a last effort for the contest after 2 failed recipes. I knew what fresh Asian flavors I liked together so that is what inspired the meatballs. I was impressed with how flavorful they turned out! They did end up a little hot so feel free to cut down on the peppers. I loved the rice noodles so much that they will be come a regular quick meal in my home. I love the suggestions from reviewers to bake the meatballs. Why didn't I think of that? I do think the sesame oil is a very important flavor enhancer for the noodles. Thanks to everyone who tried this for the contest!

THAI SPICY BASIL CHICKEN FRIED RICE



Thai Spicy Basil Chicken Fried Rice image

This is a staple of Thai cooking. Adjust the spices to your own tastes for a really great use for leftover rice!! I get the basil from a local Asian market. It has a different flavor than that of regular basil and makes all the difference in this recipe. It is fast and fairly easy to make, but requires constant stirring.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of meats: This recipe calls for ground pork and chicken, but you can also use beef, turkey, or lamb. If you're using a leaner meat, like turkey or chicken, add some extra fat, such as butter or olive oil, to keep the meatballs moist.
  • Season the meatballs well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of herbs and spices to the meatballs. This will give them a lot of flavor. Some good options include garlic, ginger, cilantro, lemongrass, and red pepper flakes.
  • Cook the meatballs thoroughly: Make sure the meatballs are cooked all the way through before adding them to the stir-fry. You can check this by cutting one of the meatballs in half and making sure that the center is no longer pink.
  • Use fresh vegetables: The vegetables in this stir-fry should be fresh and crisp. Avoid using frozen or canned vegetables, as they will not have the same flavor or texture.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables quickly: Stir-frying the vegetables quickly will help them retain their crunch. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the vegetables will steam instead of fry.
  • Add the meatballs to the stir-fry at the end: This will help prevent them from overcooking.
  • Serve the stir-fry over rice: This is a classic way to serve stir-fries, and it's a delicious way to enjoy all the flavors in this dish.

Conclusion:

This Thai meatballs over spicy stir-fry rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The meatballs are flavorful and juicy, and the stir-fry is packed with fresh vegetables. Serve it over rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
