Super simple and yum!
I made this recipe with green beans, the only thing I would suggest is that you add more chilies as I think it should be a little spicier, or you could use chili flakes to pep it up.
I did start the Wok with coconut oil and garlic about a tblsp and the shallots, while I prepped the sauce/mint and basil. I also used course ground chuck steak
Very tasty!!!!!!!!!!!
Really good tasted better than most of the Thai Restaurant’s I’ve been to. This is spicy but not over spicy. I used all the ingredients that it called for purchased them at the Asian Market except for the Thai Basil I grew that in my garden.
This was quite tasty. Very spicy, but we’re big fans of spice here, and you could easily cut that down by leaving out some of the chiles or just removing the seeds and ribs from them. I couldn’t find the soy sauces, so I used a combination of regular soy sauce and molasses, which a friend who lived in Singapore and Indonesia told me was the best substitute for sweet soy sauce. Also couldn’t find thai basil, so used regular. I’m sure it would be even better with the authentic Thai ingredients.
