How to make it
- Wash, clean quail and pat dry.
- With a smooth faced mallet, gently soften and flatten them.
- Cut in half lengthways and then cut each half to make quarters.
- In a wok, fry quail pieces in hot oil until cooked, about 5 minutes.
- Remove and put aside. (At this point I freeze the portions ready for later use. It is simple to defrost and then continue as follows, cutting the 'on the night' preparation to next to nothing!)
- Leave 3 tblspns of oil in the wok, reserving remainder for another dish.
- Stir fry garlic until golden.
- Add chillies, quail, oyster and fish sauces and roasted chilli paste.
- If necessary add a little water or stock to moisten.
- Stir fry for a few minutes, then taste and add more chilli or fish sauce if desired.
- Stir basil leaves through mixture, then remove from heat.
- Serve with boiled or steamed rice.
