@forkthepeople: World Championship Pad Krapao 🌶️ Kaprao Ingredients - 20g garlic, chopped (6-7 cloves) - authentic spicy → 28g bird’s eye chili, chopped (roughly 8-10 peppers) - medium spicy → 12g bird’s eye chili, chopped (roughly 3-4 peppers) - 2tbsp (or more) neutral oil - 1lb 80/20 ground beef - 1 egg (for frying) - 12g fish sauce (roughly 2-3 tsp) - 12g oyster sauce (roughly 2-3 tsp) - 12g light soy sauce (roughly 2-3 tsp) - 12g dark soy sauce (roughly 2-3 tsp) - 4g sugar (roughly 1 tsp) - 2g msg (roughly 1/2 tsp) - 2g white pepper (roughly 1/2 tsp) - 15-20 basil leaves, de-stemmed - 3-4 mint leaves - pinch of clove Kaprao Steps - add the garlic and roughly 2/3 of the chili (choose your spice level) to a mortar and pestle and pound until it forms a chunky paste - heat up a pan over medium-high heat until water droplets bead across the surface - add neutral oil and wait for it to start shimmering, then crack an egg into the pan and let it fry until the edges are crispy. Tilt the pan and spoon over some of the hot oil to set the yolk. Remove the egg and set it aside. - add ground beef and cook until all the water has evaporated, once the water has evaporated, keep cooking until it begins to fry in its own fat (you’ll know when the sound changes to a crispy crackling sound) - add the chili-garlic paste to the beef and cook until you feel like sneezing AND when the beef starts sticking and forming a fond at the bottom of the pan - deglaze/season with fish sauce, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, msg, and white pepper. stir to combine - finish with the basil leaves, mint, and pinch of clove. continue cooking until the leaves are wilted. - serve with a side of rice, nam prik pla sauce, and the fried egg on top. Nam Prik Pla Ingredients (side sauce shown in video) - 40g fish sauce - 20g lime - 10g garlic - 12g bird’s eye chili - 2g sugar Nam Prik Steps - Combine ingredients together in a bowl, that’s all. #cooking #food #foodtiktok #thaifood #Recipe

You can’t substitute krapao (thai basil )!! Once you do it you can no longer call it krapao . Why is this so hard to understand

I love the basil, mint, and clove hack. So creative. This is how innovation and advancement happens. Everyone complaining about semantics doesn’t understand cooking

What about “simplified copycat version” is so difficult to understand? Just want to complain about something. Looks amazing btw and will be making this. How to make the cup of sauce tho?

For everyone struggling to say it right. The r in krapao is obsolete in day to day language. We just say Kapao. Krapao is the 'stiff' way of saying it.
