🇹🇭 About This Dish

Thai Name: Pad Kra Pao (ผัดกระเพรา)

Origins: Pad Kra Pao is the dish that Thailand runs on. If there is a single meal that defines the everyday eating life of Thai people more than any other — more than Pad Thai, more than Green Curry, more than any of the dishes that have become famous internationally — it is this one. Eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner across every province of Thailand, Pad Kra Pao is the dish Thai people make when they are hungry, when they are in a hurry, when they want something that is simultaneously simple and deeply satisfying. The name refers to Kra Pao — holy basil — the aromatic herb that gives the dish its unmistakable character and that cannot be substituted without fundamentally changing what the dish is. Wok-fried at ferocious heat with garlic, chilli, soy sauce and oyster sauce, the meat caramelises and chars at the edges while the basil wilts into the sauce — creating a combination of textures and flavours that is as close to perfection as Thai street food gets.

Our Version: At Sireeya’s Taste of Thailand, Pad Kra Pao is made fresh to order in a screaming hot wok. Ground or chopped chicken, pork, prawns are stir-fried with fresh chilli, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce and holy basil leaves until the sauce is thick, glossy and coating every piece of meat with intense flavour. Served alongside Sireeya’s homemade Prik Nam Pla — a traditional Thai table condiment of fish sauce, fresh garlic and chilli — so every customer can season their own bowl exactly as it is done across Thailand every single day.

What You Get: A freshly wok-fried portion of Pad Kra Pao with chilli, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce and holy basil leaves. Available with ground chicken, pork, prawns or chicken liver. Served with homemade Prik Nam Pla — fish sauce, garlic and chilli condiment.

🥢 Perfect Pairings

Pad Kra Pao is bold, fiery and completely satisfying — here’s what our customers love ordering alongside it to build an authentic and memorable Thai meal.

🍳 Fried Rice
Across Thailand, Pad Kra Pao is almost universally served over or alongside rice — and Sireeya’s Thai Fried Rice is the finest version of that pairing. The savoury wok-fried rice soaks up the thick, glossy basil and chilli sauce in a way that plain steamed rice simply cannot match, adding its own layer of wok flavour to every mouthful. Add Sireeya’s homemade Prik Nam Pla to both dishes and you have a meal that tastes exactly like it would at a street stall in Bangkok at midnight — which is the highest compliment Thai food can receive.

🥬 Stir Fried Ginger
A pairing built on the logic of contrast. Sireeya’s wok-fried ginger with garlic and oyster sauce brings a bright, clean, sharp heat that sits alongside the deep, smoky chilli heat of Pad Kra Pao without competing — each dish occupying its own flavour lane while making the other taste better by proximity. Two wok dishes, two completely different expressions of Thai stir fry cooking, one genuinely excellent meal.

🥚 Larb Tod
Larb Tod — crispy fried balls of minced meat with shallots, mint, dried chilli, lime juice and toasted rice — shares the same minced meat spirit as Pad Kra Pao but expresses it in a completely different direction. Where Pad Kra Pao is fierce and smoky, Larb Tod is herby, citrusy and crisp — and the two together create a meal with remarkable range and depth. A pairing that rewards customers who want to explore the full breadth of what Thai minced meat cookery can achieve.

🍜 Wok-Tossed Egg Noodles
A slightly unexpected pairing but one that works beautifully in practice. Wok-Tossed Egg Noodles with crisp seasonal vegetables and aromatic garlic provide a lighter, more delicate counterpart to the intensity of Pad Kra Pao — the subtle noodle flavours absorbing the residual heat and spice from the basil stir fry and carrying them gently through the rest of the meal. A combination that gives the table variety and balance without losing the bold Thai character that makes Pad Kra Pao so special.

Fantastic, authentic Thai food. Slightly spiced is warm so stick to mild if you’re not into a bit heat. Cannot fault the quality quantity or tastiness of the meal. Can’t wait to work my way through the menu 🥰. Thankyou Sireeya.
