Steps

30 minutes

1

First, pound the chili peppers, garlic, and seasoning powder together in a mortar and pestle. Adding the seasoning powder helps prevent splattering.
2

Once the mixture is roughly crushed, add the chili flakes and pound together. This step adds extra aroma. If you don't have chili flakes, you can use dried chilies instead.
3

Heat a pan over high heat and add oil. Stir-fry the pounded chili and garlic mixture until fragrant.
4

Add the minced pork and beef and stir-fry for a moment. Add fish sauce, sugar, and soy sauce. If you prefer, you can use a sugar substitute instead of sugar. Stir in the oyster sauce and cook until the mixture is dry.
5

Turn off the heat and add the holy basil leaves. Toss everything together, then serve on a plate. Enjoy with a crispy fried duck egg for an extra treat.
