Growing Thai basil to make Pad Kra Pao (ผัดกะเพรา) ​ @anasofiafehn #thaibasil #padkrapao

This Video is from the Youtube channel: “Agrotonomy”. 

It takes just 6 weeks to grow Thai basil from the day the seedlings are transplanted. Today was harvest day, and we used it to make a Pad Kra Pao-inspired dish.

Traditionally made with holy basil, but Thai basil makes a great alternative.

    What is use of the solar panel and electronic you connected?

    • @Agrotonomy says:

      The farm runs 100% on solar. The panels power the towers directly during the day and charge the batteries for when there is no sun. The grid kicks in automatically as a backup, and we also have a gasoline generator as a final safety net.

    As a Thai person, this Pad Krapow looks great, but you need to use holy basil leaves, not thai basil.

      Thank you! It’s traditionally made with holy basil, but Thai basil makes a great alternative.

      ​@AgrotonomyYou kind of lose the unique flavor of holy basil in Pad Krapao. Thai basil is great in curries, though! I highly recommend it in Panang curry. 🤌 🌿😊
