Pad Kra Pao Moo, or Thai Basil Pork, is a popular dish from Thai cuisine renowned for its bold, savory flavors. It is made by stir-frying ground pork with garlic, chili, soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and fresh holy basil leaves, often served over steamed jasmine rice and topped with a fried egg. The dish is celebrated for its aromatic profile and spicy kick. Nutrition-wise, Pad Kra Pao Moo provides protein from the pork and key vitamins from the holy basil and chili peppers. However, it is often high in sodium due to the sauces used, which can be a consideration for those monitoring their salt intake. When using lean cuts of pork, the dish becomes a healthier option while keeping its rich flavors intact. This dish is a satisfying blend of traditional Thai ingredients that balances taste with nutritional needs.
