Step-by-step Thai fried rice recipes

If earlier rice appeared on my table only as an accompaniment to second hot dishes, in the form of pilaf or as a component of some salads, now I prefer Spanish paella or Thai fried rice. The most interesting thing is that Thai food can be prepared in a variety of ways, each of which is good in its own way. Here's a small selection of my family's favorite ways to create a wonderful Asian dish. But do not forget that you can always make adjustments to each of the recipes to your taste.
