Thai Basil Beef (Pad Gra Prow)
For my 1st post i'm gonna give u one of my fav dish. It's quick to cook and has minimum prep work, easy to make, and delicious of course! :)
I’m going to go through a few ingredients so bare with me.. Hehehe..
I know that thai food doesn’t really use a lot of ground beef, you can substitute it with thinly sliced beef, ground chicken or minced chicken..
In thai, they usually use 'Holy Basil'. It taste stronger than regular basil and also has slightly peppery and spicy taste. But, its not easy to find holy basil here in indonesia. So in this recipe i use local basil or daun kemangi as they say in indonesian (and it still taste good!)
Actually i dont have the exact or precise measurement for the amount of sauce and chili that i'm using. Thats why again and again i remind u all to taste your food.. Some people like it spicy, some people dont.. Its all abouy taste! So feel free if u wanna add extra chilli or sauces into the dish..
Feel free to explore your food pallet.. Have fun with your dish and enjoy every moment of cooking! Be adventurous! Be bold! The kitchen is yours! Bon appétit!! 😘

Thai-Style Chilled Beef Pasta Thai-Style Chilled Beef Pasta
I went to a Thai restaurant the other day and ordered a yum neua salad. It was so good that I decided to try and make it into a pasta dish.Feel free to use whatever cut of beef you like. For the dish in the photo I used up some spare beef steak fillets that I had. If you use store-bought beef tataki, it will give the salad a delicious flavour and cut the preparation time slightly.When making the sauce, the flavour will be a little more acidic if you use kabosu juice rather than lemon juice.
