Kai phat Krapow / Thai basil chicken
On our visit to Thailand a couple of years back, food was something we enjoyed the most apart from the hospitality of the Thai people. It quite amused me the way they greet you, spoke so softly and so glad that I work closely with Thailand as my office is headquartered there. And during our trip, I got to taste some authentic Thai food both at the restaurants and at a friend’s place. Ever since I have been a fan of Thai food and do cook them at home. One of them that I cook often is Kai phat Krapow or Thai basil chicken.
A simple and delicious chicken recipe you can imagine. Robustly flavored with garlic, chili and Basil is sure going to leave you longing for more. You can also cook this with minced beef or pork. Adjust the heat with adding more or less chili to suit your taste.
