It started as pad kra pao, the Thai basil stir-fry — beef instead of pork, and far more vegetables than tradition allows.

My husband picks vegetables out of everything (he acts like they'll kill him). Fried rice is the one place he won't. So eight went in, buried in sweet, savoury, peppery beef mince. He eats the lot, smiling. Children too.

It became a family favourite, then part of our Stir Fry 101 class. Years of students later, they asked for it in a pack. Here it is.

Serve it the Thai way: fried egg on top, yolk soft.

Why you'll love this

• Sweet, savoury Thai beef in every spoon — not flecks in the corner of the pack
• Eight vegetables, not a garnish — enough that nobody notices they're eating them
• Five minutes in a pan — tastes cooked, not reheated

How to Cook

• Defrost first
• High heat, 1 Tbsp oil, 5 min
• Fry an egg, yolk soft, and put it on top — the Thai way
• Never microwave — steams the rice, kills the texture

Recipes & Ideas

• Four eggs, scrambled and folded through, if you're feeding four
• Serve with our Signature Cabbage Pickle or Celery Pickle — sharp and cold against the richness
• Finish with lime and coriander if you have them
• Chilli oil on the side for the adults
