this is actually a few thai recipes that i combined into one.. most beef and basil recipes does not include vege but because m so lazy to cook the broccoli separately, so i mixed them in my dish.. hehehe.. if u search for the recipe yourself, you might find that some of the ingredients are not in my recipe, reason is simply i dont have the ingredient la hahaha.. and though those recipe includes cili padi, mine doesnt have any cili padi because my gastric doesnt permit me to eat anything spicy..
ok, enough yapping, here it is, simple but very nice..

oyster sauce - 2 tbsp; mix with 5 tbsp of water
basil - 1 handful
