I use to work with a Thai lady and she made the best food. She would bring a wok into the bank and cook this for me in the break room. It made the whole branch smell delicious. I’ve mentioned my husband has been bringing me hot peppers 🌶 from his coworker’s garden. I think these Thai chili’s have been my favorite. There is just something about the spice from the chili and the sweet from the basil that makes your taste buds so happy.
Warning- please wear gloves while handling these peppers. Also when you first put the pepper into the hot oil you may choke up a little when you breathe. 🥵🥵🥵🔥🔥🔥
