real thai pad kaprao we don't put shallot.
The more chili, the more basil. Three chilis for three sticks of basil
Original Thai Pad krapao use holy basil not sweet basil…. The taste is extremely different :/
Why shallots? and why chicken stock?
That’s not holy basil.

Love PGP. 🎉😊
May I use chicken or mutton instead ?
DELICIOUS YES PLEASE LOOKS AMAAAAZINGLY DELICIOUS BUT MORE SUGAR PLEASE
Why can't we get holy basil in the west? Surely someone can grow and sell this stuff in the asian markets. That dish is 'ok' with thai basil, but I have to imagine it would be a whole lot better with the real thing.
Love Thai basil! This dish is for me! 😋
I make this dish all the time, it's so quick, easy, and delicious! I like to squeeze some lime juice on just before eating.
I’ve made this recipe countless times and LOVE IT. A copious amount of Thai basil is definitely key here. My tip would be to slice the chilis when they’re still frozen – when you thaw them, they tend to get softer and harder to slice. Also, as mentioned in the video, I like to mix all the sauces and sugar in a bowl and have it at the ready. Make it make it make it!!! 🙂
