To make Thai Red Curry Fried Rice, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Lime wedges, for serving


To start, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and frozen peas and carrots and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Next, add the Thai red curry paste to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables. Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir to coat the rice with the curry paste. Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, and brown sugar to the skillet and stir to combine.
Cook the rice for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is heated through and the flavors have melded together. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped cilantro.
Serve the Thai Red Curry Fried Rice hot, garnished with lime wedges for squeezing over the top. This dish is perfect as a main course or as a side dish to your favorite Thai-inspired meal.
In two words, this dish can be described as 'Spicy Rice'. The three main ingredients are rice, Thai red curry paste, and vegetables.
