Thai basil makes this dish and we happened to have some in the garden that was begging to be turned into something in the Thai food group. Served with a side of steamed dumplings instead of fries and topped with spicy mayo (see basics below preparation instructions), lettuce, onion and tomato - an it's east meets west.... For a real treat make this with ground pork (preferred), ground chicken, or hamburger. Fish sauce, while not normally found in most households is optional, but recommended.
