Preparation

Step 1

1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar, Sriracha, half the minced garlic, and 6 Thai basil leaves. Mix until the sugar dissolves. Reserve.

2. In a large non-stick pan, heat the oil to medium high. Add the rest of the garlic and sauté until golden, about 1 minute. Add the eggs and scramble until almost set, about 1 minute. Add the meat and onions and cook until the meat is halfway done, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rice noodles, reserved sauce, tomatoes, Serrano peppers, and basil leaves. Stir to combine until the noodles are cooked through and the edges are slightly crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the rice wine, stir, and serve. Makes 3 to 4 servings.
