This dish takes like 30 minutes, is cheap, and super delicious. It’s sold in tons of places in Thailand, even the 7-Elevens have it heated up. Works well as leftovers, and if you use sticky rice, you don’t even need utensils (you shape the rice into utensils).
Delicious and we eat it often. We do not have holy basil where I live, so I use regular basil to make Krapao, so it is probably just called Pao? I do get hom mali rice and all the original Thai brand condiments imported from our local EU distributor.
It’s pretty different, so maybe a leafy green instead? Like spinach?
This looks great! I hadn’t heard about this dish before, but might try it out
only issue is that everywhere I go they’re using the wrong basil
Ah, really? Are there no Thai grocery stores there? Here they’re pretty available, just not in the normal supermarkets
