A vibrantly flavoured green curry paste is at the heart of the Thai Fried Rice. The paste, which is used to flavour both the rice and the coconut sauce, is a blend of myriad flavours derived from tangy lemon, ginger, onions, garlic, coriander and some spices too. Rice cooked with crunchy vegetables, soy sauce and green curry paste is shaped into a ring, which is filled with the flavoured coconut sauce, making this a sumptuous meal that turns out to be an unforgettable experience for the taste buds.
