Описание: 🔥 Authentic Thai Phat Kaphrao Beef (Pad Kra Pao Nuea)
Phat Kaphrao is one of Thailand’s most beloved street food dishes — a spicy, aromatic stir-fry made with beef, garlic, chilies, and holy basil. It is quick to cook and packed with bold Thai flavors.
🧂 Ingredients

For the Stir Fry

300 g ground beef or finely chopped beef

1 cup Thai holy basil leaves (kaphrao)

4–6 cloves garlic

3–6 Thai bird’s eye chilies (adjust to spice level)

1 small onion or 2 shallots, sliced (optional)

1–2 tbsp vegetable oil

Seasoning Sauce

1 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp light soy sauce

1 tsp dark soy sauce (for color)

1 tsp fish sauce

1 tsp sugar

To Serve

Steamed jasmine rice

Fried egg (kai dao), optional but traditional

🍳 Preparation Method

Pound or finely chop the garlic and chilies together to release their aroma.

Heat oil in a wok or pan over high heat.

Add the garlic-chili mixture and stir-fry until fragrant (about 10–15 seconds).

Add the beef and stir-fry, breaking it apart, until cooked through.

Add sliced onion/shallots if using.

Pour in oyster sauce, soy sauces, fish sauce, and sugar. Stir well.

Cook for another 1–2 minutes until the sauce coats the beef.

Turn off the heat and immediately add the holy basil leaves.

Stir until the basil wilts from the residual heat.

🍽️ Serving Suggestion

Serve hot over steamed jasmine rice and top with a crispy fried egg for an authentic Thai street food experience.

🌶️ Tips for Best Flavor

Use Thai holy basil (not sweet basil) for authentic taste

Cook on high heat for a smoky street-food flavor

Adjust chilies to your spice preference

Do not overcook the basil — add at the end
