Here's the "original" version of pad kra pao (aka pad krapow). The Thai holy basil stir fry is a popular dish, but the version you've had is probably a modern variety. Here's the way this dish used to be: simpler, easier, but still just as delicious.

As a native Thai, I can assure that this recipe is truly authentic and definitely super delicious!! By the way, I really like the trick for ruuny yolk fried egg!
no one ask - really
@@litan114no one asked you to reply
@@litan114say it to yourself tho lol.
Native thai ? really ? sugar in kraphao ? really ..?
@@champarr9278 have you seen thai cuisine without any kind of sugar??
This looks absolutely amazing. My dad worked in Saudi Arabia for 10 years and would vacation in Thailand. He learned the language and when he would come home, he would take me to a Thai restaurant and this is the dish he always ordered for me. I haven't had it since he passed away but I think of this dish all the time. I am looking forward to trying your recipe.
RIP Dad.
@@ayutthayatrojan many dad's go on vacay in Thailand, best kept secrets ;)
RIP... hope your Thai cooking adventure was a big succes!
awesome dad
Lived in Thailand for many years and ate this dish at least 5 times a week. Love it with cucumbers on the side.
cucumbers 🥒🥒🥒
sameeeeee
when i'm in thailand i eat this everyday :D
How do they cut them so nicely on the markets? Never asked them but most of the time they looked like a flower :D
Hello Pai, I've been using your pad kra pao recipe for years now... made it so often that I actually planted holy basil in my little garden here. This old school version is definitely so much simpler, I love it... thanks Pai 😊
I am a gardener. I have access to 4 types of basil seeds: THAI SWEET, THAI HOLY KAPRAO, SIAM QUEEN THAI and GENOVESE Italian. Which is best for this dish?
@@marycain7424 In the video, she says Holy Kaprao is the OG, but if you can't find it, Italian Basil is fine; that is what she uses in the recipe since the "correct" one is hard to find where she is. However. since you have Holy Kaprao, I'd go with that.
I’ve considered to start growing my own holy basil. I have searched everywhere for holy basil but I guess you can’t find it in Sweden where I live. This dish has become my favourite one to make. It’s absolutely delicious and so easy to make.
Your English is getting better and better
I love that you included the change in sounds when searing the beef! We think about smell, and sight, and touch when cooking but we don't often think about the sounds!
I just watched one of this channels videos from 9yrs ago and wtf, this lady hasn't aged a day.
Well, in case you haven't noticed most, if not all, Asian people DO NOT like sun. Umbrella is their best friend to shield them from the sun.😊
Sawadee Khap! I'm a farang retired in Chonburi, and you're my go-to source for Thai cooking (and amazing my Thai friends). The Kra Pao was delicious, and the fish sauce fried wings I just devoured are borderline addictive. I literally ate the first batch while the second was still frying... Anyway, thanks for the channel and keep up the good work!
Hello from Germany! Today I made the first Pad Kra Pao of my life with your recipe. It tasted similar to the dish I ate when I was in Thailand for vacations. I am so happy and very thankful for all your advices!
where did you buy the chilis? I am having trouble finding good tasting chilis here since most of them are either bland or just burn without tasting good like they do in thailand
@@M1ch43l33 Im Asia Markt (zum Beispiel GoAsia) gibt es die.
Couldn't have said it better. Pad gaprao is hands down Thailand national dish. A forever favorite
In the US holy basil can be found fresh at Burmese stores (you’d be surprised how many there are). If you live in a city with a Burmese community there’s most certainly a Burmese market. We call it Kra Pao leaf too so you can just ask for that. During the summer I can find holy basil seedlings at South Asian market where they call it tulsi.
It's also really easy to grow yourself! I bought holy basil seeds from Thailand on Amazon. I make this one a week!
Burmese name Arpuu Leaf
if you research properly , holy basil and thai basil are two different species and taste different ...

I grow my own because Thai holy basil is many times just Thai basil. There's a huge difference. Kitasawa Seed Company sells the real Thai holy basil seeds. It's super hardy and easy to grow.
When the Thai boys soccer team got trapped in the flooded cave, while awaiting rescue, they were asked what the first thing they wanted to eat was when they got out. Number on on the list was pork with holy basil and an egg and the second request was KFC. lol
Actually it's "stir fried crispy pork belly with holy basil + fried egg" ผัดกะเพราหมูกรอบ + ไข่ดาว😉🤤👍
Pailin, this Pad Kra Pao looks amazing! It's definitely being added to the dinner menu in our home. Keep the great recipes coming. I love Thai food!
I agree that this dish should be the national dish! This is my favourite thai dish. I had the best Pad Kra Pao when I was in Thailand a few years ago. Such a simple dish that hits the spot every time. Aah i wanna go back to Thailand again.
I just had Graprow with crispy pork for lunch at one of my favorite Tai restaurant. OMG! Fantastic! So happy you have the recipe. Can’t wait to make Graprow!
I absolutely love your channel, just as much as I love authentic Thai dishes! Pad Kra Pao is the best dish on the planet.
I live in Malaysia and there are lots of Thai food stalls and restaurants run by Thais here. Now and then I'd get pad gaprao from one of these places and none - NONE - of them is even in the same league as my pad gaprao because I use your recipe 😂 It's practically the only recipe I know so well how to cook because I make it often 😍
👍👍👍😘
Pad Kra Pao is probably my favorite Thai dish. Always enjoy recipes to help make my own even better. Appreciate the upload.👍🏾
It's always a pleasure watching you cook. You bring joy, serenity and fun knowledge to cooking. Seems like I can really smell and taste your cooking. Thanks.
We spent 3 amazing weeks in Thailand recently and this was my favorite dish that I tried! A local Thai lady said that this was her favorite so I knew I had to try it. I can tolerate some spice in dishes and this one definitely needs some tolerance built up! It is way spicer than what I would normally reach for but I couldn't stop eating it! It is so amazing. Definitely going to be making this once I find some chilis. Love your tip with the beef and egg. Looking forward to checking out your other videos to relive our time in Thailand!
Wow that egg technique is life-changing. Thank you, Pai!
AS a Canadian living in Thailand Bangkok for 11 years now, very authentic recipes, great video.
I made this at home using my carbon steel wok and man was that just amazing! It came out exactly like yours, so proud. Thanks so much for this recipe, it's so simple and perfect.
This is the single most useful sponsorship I've ever seen. I honestly think it's so funny that the Canadian government made an app to help people learn how to use cuts of beef but I am thankful for it. Also, I already have everything to make this so definitely hope to try it this week!
Edit: 10/10 delicious recipe
Love it ❤ My in-laws lived in Chiangmai for 12 years and I visited often. Pad Kra Pao Moo Kai Dow was my go to.
Such a genius egg hack!!!!!! Thank you for all of the extra info you always tell us in your videos. It always helps to understand the whys and hows
Funnily enough, whenever I want a wholesome, hearty Thai dish, I go straight for the Pad Kra Pao. There is something so comforting (and warming) about it :)
Wonderful Pailin! You make me think of our grandma who cooked for us when we were young, particularly when we visited her in Thailand! Our caucasian friends love your cooking now!
YOUR OLD GAPRAO VID GOT ME INTO COOKING AND EXPLORING THAI FOOD ILY 🥺
Thank you Pai❤Your all recipes are just perfect！I’ve made a lot of them and never feel that something is missing,not even once! Love you ❤❤
Im from Chicago we have a huge Thai community here, this has become my favorite thai dish by far
This has to be the first time I’ve gone back to rewatch the sponsor portion of a video. Bavette was my favorite cut of steak when I lived in France, and I’ve never before known what it was called (or whether it even existed) on this side of the Atlantic! So glad that was the example.
I love this! Well I love all your recipes. 💖I live in US and I appreciate you giving option recommendations for hard to find ingredients. Will make this recipe this coming weekend. 🥰
Simple, yet such incredible tasty dish, one of my favorites!
I finally made this dish today and I’m bloody happy with how it turned out. Your instructions are so simple to follow, even for someone new to Thai cuisine. My kitchen smelled horrendous after I added fish sauce but damn, is it delicious! I see why it is so popular in Thailand. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
I’m so glad you revisited this recipe. I am OBSESSED with this dish. Your first video is how I found you and this channel because I had to figure out how to cook this dish myself because I was going broke ordering everyday from my local Thai restaurant. 😂 I’ve gotten pretty decent at making this dish and it’s a “go to” for me for guest that love Thai food. I too have never found holy basil but my local farmers market has Thai basil so I use that. I also get Chinese long beans and add those with the bell peppers. Awesome tip on the fired egg….I’m definitely going to try that next time I cook this dish…this afternoon. 😊
I can get all three Basil's but the holy one is expensive and not easy to find.after using Thai b and normal b in this dish l think regular basil is the second best choice if holy ain't about.
I grew up eating Thai because the Latino community wasn’t as big when my parents first moved to the outskirts of metro Atlanta area. The Thai restaurant that we frequented made their dish like this and it’s honestly my favorite.
Thanks 👍 this recipe was spot on!!! The home grown Italian basil worked so well! I used a few random chillies that I grew in my garden. It's spicy and so good!
Pailin, I’ve NEVER seen that egg yolk/white technique before !!!
I really get so much from your channel !!!
Thank you !
I'm going to try this on my next visit to Bangkok in 2 weeks, I can't wait!
oh this way is simpler than what i was doing all this time - thank you sis
This is one of my favourite dishes! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe, especially the way how you fry the egg. It's absolutely genius.
You make fried eggs like my mother❤
She was born in Angola, in a city between the desert and the ocean, she did like that because it resembles a welwishia mirabilis, a beautiful desert flower...
Specially when you cut the yolk and it spreads...
She did out of creativity and here we are learning a new beautiful thing, i believe the World is just.... Amazing ❤
Absolutely love holy basil. My mouth is watering watching this
Thank you! For the egg, I have an easier trick. Use a small saucepan with oil in the bottom. Heat the oil, then crack the egg in and reduce the heat to medium-low. This allows the bottom to get nice and crispy while leaving the yolk runny. It just takes a couple minutes longer.
I grow tons of Holy Basil in pots around my garden. It’s super easy and pretty invasive because the seeds end up everywhere. I just pluck out the ones I don’t want.
Lucky you!!
Same here. Lol! I actually prefer this dish with regular Thai sweet basil though...
Mind Blown!!!!… with that fried egg trick!!!
I've been waiting for this one! Fantastic!
I am Thai and love Pad Krapao so much. This is a very good old school recipe. And you pound the chillies in the mortar and serving with Khai Dao (fried egg). Awesome! Good job ! Khun Pailin. A small bowl of prik nampla (fish sauce) is a real booster. I’m getting hungry now.
You combine Krapao and nampla while Pailin does not. Why?
@@Zonfeair I think OP combines Prik (Chilies) and Nampla (Fish sauce) together (+may be some lime juice) to use it as condiment. Prik-Nampla is a common condiment for Thai food. We drizzle it on top of many rice dishes ; Pad Krapao rice included.
@@ploytatchi My question was in reference to the way the spelling not the recipe.
@@Zonfeair Oh I see. In Thai, for these two words we write each syllable next to each other (กะเพรา / น้ำปลา) so when we write them in English we just combine them and don't put space in between. While for Pailin I think she wrote them separately for non-Thais to know how to pronounce the word correctly.
@@ploytatchi Someone who speaks 2 languages bi lingual,3 or more multi lingual,1 English.😂😂
You can get Thai holy basil at every Waitrose store in the UK. And when you said, “My beef is getting really wet now” I nearly died.
Hello P'Pailin! Been using your old recipe for years now, just tried the 'new' classic one, made it with crispy tofu, and the taste was awesome. I think we prefer this one.
Thanks as always! Kop khun krub!
My favorite Thai dish! Thank you for the recipe!
Pad Kra Pao is my go to for a quick and delicious meal. I normally use ground pork or chicken. I can find holy basil here in Dallas and the label usually says "hot basil". For the sauce I use oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, and a spoon of sugar. Comes out great every time!
Replace light soy sauce to fish sauce. You may found the game changing favor.
@@kritpol1 What about soy sauce, oyster sauce AND fish sauce?
Love this recipe, I’ve made this at least 4 times in the last month since I found this recipe! I’ve used chicken or pork and I have to admit that pork or beef is my favorite probably because of the fat content in the pork/beef, chicken is good but just not as good as the other two 😋 I live in the Philippines and I have no idea what basil we have here, presumably Italian basil it’s lovely and has a great peppery taste and the price is reasonable so I try to have some washed and dried leaves wrapped in paper towel in my veg compartment in the fridge so I can make it anytime I crave Pad Kra Poa 😘 thanks for another easy recipe
I'm surprised how simple this recipe is, and it sounds delicious!
I appreciate your entire video. I even watched the sponsor promo because you made it interesting and useful. Thank you.
Confirm on Pai's note about the basil types. When I was studying in England when I cant find Thai Holy Basil I used Italian Basil as the flavour profile is closer to holy basil + easier to find in UK supermarket.
Thai ingredients, including holy basil, are readily available in Sweden. Fresh vegetables are flown in from Bangkok twice a week to Asian supermarkets around the country, including small towns. Thai food is very popular here as pretty much everyone has been to Thailand 🇹🇭
I love how much this screams “rich country”. 😂 I should move to Sweden
@@nelsondhg Food is actually very reasonably priced in Sweden. I’ve lived in 17 countries, currently in Bosnia, and the only countries where food is cheaper are Germany and Spain. There’s great variety too - not just local ingredients (although they are very good)
The sponsor of today's video is the only sponsor I have ever liked. What a good idea!! I'm sharing it with my friends who like steak!!
Thank you so much for explaining how the meat will get wet during the middle of the cooking process!! I’ve always thought I was doing something wrong when cooking meat, and it’s a relief to know that this is normal 😅 I can’t wait to make this tonight!!! ❤️
tips
1.use a bit more fatty beef so you don't have to add more oil
2.add a dash of water with beef so it won't stick to the pan until the fat turn into oil
3.we used to fry the chili with lard first to extract the capsaicin so the spiciness will blend nicely to the meat but her method is ok just make sure you let chili fried in oil not boiling it with meat juice or water
4.if you can find bird's eye chili (fresh or frozen not dried) it will give you proper kicks of Thai spicy ,less hot but like roller coaster it will give you more painful experience but not so long
no one ask - really
If you live in the southern US (I live in Central Texas), Holy Basil absolutely loves the climate if you make sure and keep it watered. It grows insanely fast and the main problem is to keep up with it to keep it from bolting too soon. However, even when it does that, you still get lots of leaves *and* the plants are insanely aromatic and will make your garden smell fantastic. Also in my extremely limited experience, finches absolutely love the seeds. I had a pair of Lesser Goldfinches show up one day and work over my two plants like little robots, cleaning the seeds off completely.
Also as an additional note, the plants re-seed themselves and will come up next year. If you have one or two big happy Holy Basil plants, you will probably always have some.
just discovered your channel through this recipe. You are a great teacher and excellent communicator....you deserve many subscribes and likes!
Thank you for the segment where you go into depth explaining the different varieties of basil! I always thought Thai Basil = Holy Basil, but learned today that isn't the case!
Not only are your recipe videos delectable to recreate, they're very educational! 😊
I love Thai basil. Luckily I can get it fresh from the store but never tried holy basil, which they also sell fresh every day, I just found out. Very nice recipe and a very neat trick with that runny egg...!!
Here is Wisconsin, USA, we grew Holy Basil from some plants. They were great and this is a favorite dish in my household. We had so much basil that we froze it. Who knows what we can do with frozen holy basil? But yeah, thanks for this video.
Wow, that looks great!
One of my go-to meals when I lived in Thailand!
I made it several times. Delicious! Thank you!
Fantastic. I used to have this every morning in the market in Chiang mai just after the monks had done their rounds. I think you kind of need that nostalgia for this dish.
in the UK I have found "FROZEN THAI HOLY BASIL SET KRA PRAO 120G BY CHANG" it's not so expensive compared to fresh Kraprao and means I can always get the kraprao taste.
In the UK, you can also buy a holy basil plant in the garden centre. Worth it
true, I might try to get some and not kill it once it gets a bit warmer here
Hi from Northern Ontario. I am a big fan of your channel and this recipe is another winner! Thank you.
Looks so delicious, pretty presentation, and easy! Thank you!
Hi Pailin! I got my holy basil plant from Mandeville Gardens (Gardenworks) last year. It didn’t survive the winter but since it had a lot of flowers which ultimately produced seeds, this year I had a lot of baby holy basil plants all over the spot where I planted the first plant last year! Yum! Thank you for sharing your recipe - I will definitely give this a try.
Where are you?
@@johntchb New West
@@pinkwillow2023 forgive my ignorance,l am in uk and don't know where new west is.l am guessing USA,trying to work out the climatic conditions to grow holy basil.
@@johntchb Hi Jay! Sorry, New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada. I’m guessing we have similar climates. My holy basil plants are starting to sprout again! That’s from last summer’s seeds that just drop from the plants.
@@pinkwillow2023 good luck with them ,l will give it a go.
I love this dish with ground pork. Might not be authentic but to me, the beef flavor is overpowering and the pork is a more subtle flavor that takes on the flavors of the seasonings. I use ground pork to make Vietnamese caramelized ground pork. So so good.
So, this is how this type of fried egg is done!
Thank you for sharing!
Love your personality and your show. When I miss Thailand I watch your show.
Pad Krapao is the national dish of Thailand. There is no doubt in my mind. There was a time I ate it every day for breakfast for many years. I ordered mine with pork with mushrooms and green beans and an egg not cooked too long. pad krapao moo sai het, sai tua fukyao, kai dao mai suk taorai. The garlicky and spicier the better. Mai phet, mai aroy. I don't even think I would enjoy it if it isn't garlicky and spicy. I have been eating a lot of Thai food at home lately. The hardest part is finding hot chiles. I live in a Mexican neighborhood and I am arguing with the grocery workers over which chile peppers are the hottest. They think I am nuts because I am always telling them what they got is never spicy enough.
You can find Holy Basil at Lucky Super Market in Surrey. They have it most of the time I go there.
This looks great krub, very authentic
Made this last night from your recipe and it turned out great! I used Thai basil and it was good. Next time I'll try the Italian basil
Hi Pai, what a surprise . Just a couple of days before I made my Pad krapao. Here in Augsburg (South Germany) I am able to get Krapao in an Asian supermarket. Quite expensive, but available. Because I make my own minced meat with a machine and short time before I made 2 kg of mineed pork , I used pork for my Pad krapao. It was delicious, but unfortunately I did not use fresh chily, only dry chily from Thailand. Thank you for your work, I like it so much, unfortunately I never was in Vancouver, only for a long time in Toronto. There they have a lot of big Asian shops and I cooked many times my favourite Thai food.
Some Thai prefer dried chilli in this Pad Kaprao. 😉👍
@@omgwth7567 Yes. Some Thai/some restaurants prefer dried chilli including me and my family. I think it enhance the aroma of Pad Kaprao.
@@joeybkk
👍👍👍
One of my favorite Thai dishes!!! Would it be possible to do a video on how Thai people start introducing spicey foods to their children? I find cultural food ways very interesting.
Interesting question! We give kids spicy food a little at a time and more as they get older, no special secrets or process there :)
In my case, I start from eating less spicy stuff or those that lean toward sour-sweet first.
then gradually add more spiciness. My parent didn't teach me, I just grow used to it.
My starter dish is "Tom-Yum Noodle" then follow by "SomTam grilled chicken and sticky rice" then "Pad Krapow".
Little hotness didn't affect a Thai at all probably due to this reason.
Some family just eat spicy on daily basic it become children stable food too.
Thank you! I will be using this recipe often. It looks delicious and I cant wait to try it out. the egg trick is amazing and I never knew thats how they got it like perfectly cooked lol
I am so impress with your cooking and Teaching style...Love It!!...Thank You...I love Thai food....simply the best!!!
Way I get around the spice is I add lots of sweet chilli flakes to the oil (with as many frozen thai chillies my family can handle). I find that the dehydrated stuff infuses really well with the fat and gets me that real nice aroma and flavour without all of the spice. Even when I make it for myself I use as many thai chillies as I can handle with added flakes to boost the flavour
Pad Kra Pao Kai Dow - is a great keto friendly dish as well. Just hold the rice and the sugar, or use cauliflower rice.. It took me a while to accept that yes, you can enjoy Thai Food without the rice. No sugar changes the balance a bit, but it's still great.
Exactly what I did. Served with cauliflower rice!
You could use erythritol as a sugar substitute. It's keto friendly I believe 😊
Method in which you cook the egg was absolutely brilliant!
Welcome back ms Pailin. I really missed your cooking demos.
In Perth, Western Australia you can get Holy Basil in any Asian market in many places all over the city. We are so lucky - delicious. Just not the same with plain Basil. 😥
I'm in Perth but haven't been able to find any Holy Basil. Any tips north of the river?
@@rugdouglas443 MCQ Coventry Markets in Morley usually always have it 😃
Pad Kra Pao has always been one of my favourites, and here in the UK I am sometimes able to get Holy Basil frozen. But I've been eating it for years with Thai basil and for me that's the flavour I love. When I do it with Holy basil it's just not the same! And I didn't know about the fried egg until I started watching Hot Thai Kitchen a few years ago. Pai's method of cooking in oil to get a frothy white and a crispy bottom has transformed my bacon & eggs, but for some reason the Pad Kra Pao flavours with an egg just don't go together for me. Having said that, I've never been to Thailand and it would be a dream destination. Pailin, if you ever decided to host gastronomic tours of Thailand for tourists, I'd pay a lot of $$$ to go on one!
Now is the best time to go. Do it now. Just book a flight. You won't regret it !!
@@brin57 Listen Brian Griffin. I'll definitely regret it when I get fired for disappearing on another holiday when I just came back from a two-week road trip! If you carry on with these terrible suggestions, I might have to get Mr. Hoover out!!
@@thesushifiend Haha! Yeah, I understand, but you get my point. It's a wonderfull place with the friendliest people I've encountered anywhere. Oh, did I mention the food!! Cheers.
I prefer my pad kaprao plain or with a boiled egg on the side. Any stir-fry with a fried egg on top is just too greasy for my palate. (I am Thai born and raised.)
Ground pork is my favorite for making pad kra pao. It just has a pleasant sweetness to it that I think adds to the dish.
Will definately try this recipe looks delicious
It's thai comfort food. 🙂
Surprised to know the regular Italian basil is actually the correct one to use. I always use Thai basil since its a thai dish so I assume that's the one to go for
I guess holy basil shouldn't have a strong anise flavor like Thai Basil
Love it! That dish looks incredibly delicious!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your runny egg trick😋
This is my absolute favourite Thai meal! I was so excited to find out I can make it at home. Yum!!
I love your fried egg trick! This is how I always like my eggs, crispy white with runny yolk, but sometimes I accidentally overcook it. So this is a new trick that is very helpful. Thank you!
Yep Aussie here...my fave too...frequent traveller to Thailand
Imma have to try this version ! I love pad kaprao especially after eating it almost every day in Thailand
I've been meaning to grow holy basil for a while so I just ordered the seeds for next year. From what I've heard I'll never need to grow it again because it readily reseeds by itself. Thanks!
