For people within the Taiwanese diaspora in the United States, the scent of Thai basil is a reminder of the pungent and spicy basil you’ll find everywhere in Taiwan. The Taiwanese variety is quite hard to find in the States, but the more readily available Thai basil, which you can find at Asian supermarkets, is a good substitute. You can make these noodles with sweet basil if you can’t find Thai, but it will lack the same punch of grassy, spicy flavor.
Quick-frying the basil-garlic purée with rice wine brings out the fragrance of the herb and mellows the sharpest notes of raw garlic without completely muting them. The result is a savory, aromatic, licorice-scented green sauce that clings perfectly to wide noodles.
This topping combination is inspired by the traditional noodle stands you see everywhere in Taiwan. With crunchy fried garlic or shallots, mung bean sprouts, garlic chives, and an egg on top, this is a complete meal in a bowl that’s easy to execute on weeknights.

Ingredients
-----------
4
large eggs (optional)
1
head of garlic, peeled
3
cups Thai basil
¾
cup vegetable oil, divided
¼
cup michiu tou or other rice wine
1
tsp. sugar
1
tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
4
garlic chives, cut into ½" pieces
2
cups mung bean sprouts
4
servings dried wide sliced noodles (such as Hsin Tung Yang; about 8 oz.)
Store-bought fried garlic and chili crisp (for serving)
Preparation
-----------
### Step 1
If using eggs, bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower eggs into water one at a time. Cook 6½ minutes, adjusting heat to maintain a gentle boil. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water with slotted spoon; reserve pot with boiling water. Let eggs sit until just slightly warm, about 2 minutes.
### Step 2
Gently crack eggs all over and peel, starting from the wider end, which contains the air pocket. Slice in half and set aside for serving.
### Step 3
Blend raw garlic, Thai basil, and ½ cup oil in a blender or food processor until a smooth paste forms.
### Step 4
Heat remaining ¼ cup oil in a large skillet over medium. Carefully scrape in Thai basil purée and add wine, sugar, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and season with more salt if needed.
### Step 5
Return reserved pot of water to a boil. Cook garlic chives and bean sprouts until chives are bright green and sprouts start to turn translucent, about 1 minute. Using slotted spoon, transfer to a small bowl.
### Step 6
Cook noodles in same pot until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain noodles and transfer to pan with sauce. Using tongs, toss noodles to coat.
### Step 7
Divide noodles among bowls. Top with bean sprouts, garlic chives, fried garlic, and reserved eggs (if using) and drizzle with chili crisp.

* This recipe is fantastic. For not much effort, you end up with a meal that tastes like it was made at a restaurant. We made it as is except for frying the egg sunny side up instead of boiling. I would emphasize that having thai basil is key to this dish and it wouldn't be nearly as great with sweet basil. We found thai basil at 99 ranch, labeled as just regular basil. Highly recommend this recipe!
