Summary

Phat kaphrao (Thai: ผัดกะเพรา): "fried with holy basil".

In Thailand it is mostly ordered as (phat) kaphrao mu (holy basil with minced pork, as on the photo), as (phat) kaphrao kai (holy basil with minced chicken) or as (phat) kaphrao kung (holy basil with (chopped) prawns). The version with minced beef (phat kaphrao nuea) isn't eaten very often in Thailand. It is nearly always served together with phrik nam pla which is a mixture of fish sauce and lime juice with chopped chillies and sliced garlic.

The basic ingredients for kaphrao mu are: minced pork, holy basil, sliced or chopped garlic, chillies (a modern version is to use paprika if you do not want to make it spicy), soy sauce and fish sauce.

The photo shows kaphrao mu rat khao: together with rice on one plate. It is also often eaten as phat kaphrao mu/kai/kung rat khao khai dao, which then will feature a fried egg "sunny side up" on the side.
