Years ago, I had great Pad Kra Pao (minced chicken with Holy Basil) at a street side stall in central Bangkok (It was available in a lot of places, but a good example was the stalls on Kasem San 1 Alley, just off the National Station skytrain station). I was heartbroken to hear that the Thai government shut down all the streedside food stalls, because that's where the best food was.
Pad Kra Pao is available in a lot of Thai restaurants around the world, but it seems to follow a different, more common national recipe. It's hard to find it abroad cooked with the same taste as in Bangkok. Does anyone have a recipe for it?
bon appetit
