Just a warning-this dish is spicy! And drunken refers to the amount of liquid you'll need to quench yourself after a few bites this dish. Oh and keep a box of Kleenex handy because it's a nose runner.
All that said I do like it a lot! I try to make it several times a year. Yeah it's hot as all get out but the depth of flavors make it work. It's not one note.
Prep work and cooking is easy too. I used Thai basil. If you can't get that try mint. I used the Golden Mountain sauce but you could definitely substitute light soy sauce. Black soy is like soy sauce with molasses. It's a distinct flavor so try to get that if you can.
You can also vary the meats. I've used shrimp and pork.

OK I am stumped--and a little embarassed to be stumped by Bon Appetit for goodness' sake! What is golden mountain sauce?
It's a bottled sauce from Thailand. it reminds me of a seasoned soy sauce or Maggi. It was near the soy sauce at my Asian grocery and it's pretty cheap.
