the music is too loud!!!!

Everything looks good, except the music while showing the food is too loud and noisy, in my opinion.

@BasilMeyers actually soy beans, and sunflower oil is more common, i think Chinese use peanuts oil more.... but definitely not thais....

[Thaifoodmaster]

Hi there, You asked for opinion...;-)) it looks great.

there is no right or wrong, i would change...

leave the onion out

fry the garlic/chili first as you did, but instead of adding the beans, fry the pork first. fry it really dry.

season with fish sauce, oyster sauce, white pepper and bit of sugar, add some stock for moisture

than add the beans. it taks only seconds to cook, finish with the basil leaves and voila....cheers

Grapeseed oil is better for cooking at high temperatures, lots of people use peanut oil in Thailand but grapeseed oil is healthier, has no flavour, and doesn't harm people with nut allergies.

Cooking the pork separately allows it to be caramelised better, the woks they use on the soys in Thailand are much more powerful than anything you'd find in a kitchen. Cooking things in stages just allows me to achieve a better effect. If you have suggestions thatyou think would improve please post them.

This is typical farang style recipe. Not authentic at all. You don't use grapeseed oil and you cook the pork separately. Everything goes in all at one go.
