    Fiery Thai cuisine: Holy basil meets tempeh

    Pad Krapow is Thai street food at its finest! Traditionally made with meat, here with tempeh – and it tastes just as good. The secret lies in the chili and garlic paste, which is first fried. The tempeh is torn into pieces and fried until crispy, then seasoned with various soy sauces. Holy basil (or Thai basil) imparts the authentic flavor – regular basil will do in a pinch. Green beans add bite and color. Served with rice, it's a wholesome, spicy dish that will transport you straight to Bangkok. In 20 minutes, you'll have authentic Thai cuisine on your plate. If you haven't liked tempeh before, you'll love it with this recipe! 🇹🇭
