Thai Chilli Chicken Recipe
Right off the streets of Thailand, made in your own home! The authentic version of this popular Thai street food uses Thai holy basil but normal Thai basil is a close substitute which is what I usually use because Holy basil is not readily available where I live. It is also still worth making even if you use normal basil!
