Meat

1 1/8 lb (500 grams) Pork shoulder or pork belly

Herbs and Vegetables

3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Thai basil leaves

4 cloves Garlic cloves

5 pieces Bird's eye chilies

1 piece Red bell pepper

3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Green beans

2 pieces Shallots

Sauces and Seasoning

2 tablespoons Aged soy sauce

1 tablespoon Oyster sauce

1 tablespoon Fish sauce

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon black pepper

3 tablespoons Cooking oil

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Pork

Cut the pork shoulder or belly into small bite-sized pieces.

Chop the Vegetables

Thinly slice the garlic cloves and shallots. Chop the red bell pepper into strips and cut the green beans into 2-inch pieces. Slice the bird's eye chilies if you prefer a milder heat, you can leave them whole.

Prep the Basil

Rinse the Thai basil leaves under cold water and set aside.

Cooking

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet or wok, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat.

Sauté Aromatics

Add the sliced garlic and shallots to the pan. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Cook the Pork

Add the chopped pork to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the pork is browned and cooked through.

Add Vegetables

Stir in the red bell pepper, green beans, and bird's eye chilies. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Season the Dish

Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar, and black pepper to the skillet. Mix well to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.

Finish with Basil

Turn off the heat and stir in the Thai basil leaves until they wilt from the residual heat.
