The problem of onions and long beans in the Thai cuisine

This is the most famous stir fried chicken with Basil leaves .Also the most basic Thai ordinary meal for ordinary people . But what you see in this cooking video clip is the controversial  style of cooking and ingredient here that really piss off some Thais

  Some Thais do not agree with the onion and long bean and condemn this as unfaithful  to the traditional stir fried with Basil leaves recipe. Any way both styles are popular all over the country and frankly speaking : no clear-cut winner.

fresh chilli is a must : Better hot = Better taste for this fiery menu.

but the cooking style here uses onions  and long bean which unacceptable for someThais

Another cooking method that so different  from the old school style : The Basil leaves here were deep fried in a wok resulting in a crispy version which is the new style.

Pad Thai Sukhothai style Thai street food

Everyone loves Pad Thai but which one?  There are absolutely no unity or uniform of Pad Thai in Thailand at all . Every province has their own style and a little bit more of local interpretation .Some sweeter or even thick in sauce or some are drier   some with slice pork meat or  some with banana flower slices  ... well   i can only say  what you really got depends on many things  and the only few things in common are rice noodle and peanut .

This one cooking style in this clip  more like boiling  the rice noodle in thick peanut sauce rather than stir fried way usually see.The sliced long bean is a hallmark of Sukhothai and lower Northern provinces .The local cuisine  there  always adds some long bean to anything noodle .
