Cook the rice then set aside.
Combine fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce and sugar with a dash of water in a separate bowl. Pound the chilli and garlic to a paste in a pestle & mortar.
In a wok, fry the garlic & chilli paste in a tablespoon of oil until the garlic starts to brown.

Add basil and stir until it wilts.
Fry the eggs in plenty of oil until bubbly with brown, crispy edges.
