Been wanting to make this for a while and finally gave it a go. This turned out absolutely incredible and is honestly better than any I’ve ever had at a Thai restaurant. Vibed it out after watching a video from Mark Wiens and you could see how they made it at his restaurant in Thailand.
No real recipe, but here’s roughly what I used:
40-ish Thai chilis and 10 cloves of garlic run through the blender
1 pound of ground beef (couldn’t find pork)
1 cup of basil with about a teaspoon of freshly ground fennel seed (didn’t feel like making a 45 minute trip just for Thai basil)
~ 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
~ 2 teaspoons of soy sauce
~ 1.5 teaspoons MSG
Some white pepper, smoked black pepper, ground Asian red pepper flakes
Next time I make a trip out to the good Asian grocery store I’ll absolutely be grabbing some Thai basil or holy basil if they have it.
Put a nice handful of chopped up raw chilli’s on top
