Method
Peel, devein and roughly chop the prawns, finely chop the chillies and garlic, and pick the holy basil leaves.
Whisk together the fish sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce and palm sugar in a small bowl.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok over high heat and stir-fry the garlic and chillies for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the prawns and stir-fry for 4 minutes until pink, opaque and reading 63°C on a meat thermometer.
Stir in the sauce and toss for 2 minutes until evenly coated.
Remove from the heat and stir through the holy basil leaves until wilted.
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over high heat and fry the eggs for 3 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny.
Divide the cooked rice between plates, top with the pad krapow and a fried egg, and serve immediately.
