Holy Basil Minced Pork

Holy Basil Minced Pork

Garlic Chili Stir-Fry w/ Jasmine Rice

Also called Pad Kra Pao, this dish is known to be a Thai street-food favourite amongst the locals. Typically served for those in a hurry of a quick lunch, it makes for a convenient recipe that’s readily put together in any kitchen. With ingredients easily sourced to match a flavour profile known as the holy trinity of Thai seasonings (fish > soy > oyster sauce), it’s fair to say a taste of Thailand is making it’s way home to you. With loosely chopped garlic and chilis in oil to activate the flavours on a medium-heat pan, stir in the ground pork till crispy followed by the fragrant seasoning pairings and holy basil leaves to be stir-fried until wilted. Served on a bed of Jasmine rice, and lastly crowned with a crispy fried egg. Comfort food never tasted this good…
