Heat the pan with oil (I don't like it too oily hence I only used 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon of oil) once heat is up add in garlic, shallots and chilli (if you are too lazy to cut garlic and shallots you may just add in chilli).
-
Added in ground pork - stir fry till its about 70% cooked then add the long beans.
-
Once the pork is about done, start adding seasoning.
-
2.5 tablespoons - Oyster sauce >>> 1 tablespoon - Soy sauce >>> Half tablespoon - fish sauce >>> 2.5 tablespoons - brown sugar >>> some white pepper.
-
Continue to stir fry the pork with the seasonings. Taste and adjust accordingly, you can add a few tbs of water in if its too dry or too salty.
-
Then add in the basil and stir fry until the basil is well incorporated and turn darker in color then off the heat..
-
Drizzled in the sesame oil. I serve mine with a bowl of rice and sunny side up 😋😋.

Love to cook it with vegetables.
Fry the garlic and chilli with the oil in a wok or pot until the garlic becomes golden, but not too much golden.
Fry the minced meat first and a little after the onions..
Pad Kra Pao means stir-fry basil, thus making it the main ingredient in this classic dish from Thailand.
