- Add garlic and red chilies, continuing to cook until the bacon is done, and the garlic is fragrant and golden.

- Add cooked instant noodles, tossing until they're well coated and heated through without sticking.
- Sprinkle in Thai holy basil and cook for 20 seconds or until wilted. Serve immediately.
