Thai basil beef
10 steps
Prep:15minCook:15min
Savory, spicy, and packed with the flavor of basil and fish sauce, that is what flashes across my mind when I think of Thai basil beef. Thai basil beef is so versatile that it can be served as Thai basil beef noodles or Thai basil beef bowl top with a fried egg.
