- This is a rich dish with plenty of Thai flavors. Any kind of beef can be used. The original of this recipe calls for mint but states which Basil maybe used. I tried both and preferred basil, especially Thai basil leaves.
- Also the chilies can be adjust for your heat preferences. The idea is to have a rich, warm chili flavor.
- 1. Slice the beef across the grain into 1/4 in thick strips, 2 to 3 inches long. Set aside.
- 2. Lb. or possibly grind the chilies, garlic, and onion to a coarse paste in a mortar or possibly blender. If you use a blender you may need to add in the oil to aid grinding.
- 3. Heat a wok, add in the oil, and swirl it over the surface fo the pan. (Don't add in more oil if you used oil in the blender) Add in the paste from Step 2 and stir fry till it is a light golden brown color.
- 4. Add in the beef and stir fry till it is a uniform tan color. but don't overcook it.
- 5. Add in the fish sauce, sugar, water, and basil leaves.
- More water maybe added if the sauce is too dry. There should be about 1/2 to 3/4 c. of sauce, depending on how much water you added.
- 6. Arrange a single layer of lettuce leaves in a serving bowl, put the beef mix over them. Serve the beef immediately or possibly keep it hot while preparing other dishes. Server with rice.
- Suggested Wine: Shiraz
- NOTES : Ahead of time you can prepare the paste, beef, and sauce. Just do not add in the basil leaves till you are ready to reheat the dish and serve it.
