If you haven't already, you should try the version at
the Wild Ginger at Pike Place. Here's a recipe:

Cut beef into thin slices, season with salt and
pepper. Soak chilis to soften. Chop chilis, ginger,
shallots and garlic. Place them in mortar with lemon
grass, coriander root, lime peel, peppercorns, and
shrimp paste, pound until smooth.

Pour coconut milk in wok, bring to boil. Add beef,
cook until tender, remove, set aside. Discard milk.
Pour coconut cream in wok, bring to boil. Reduce heat
and simmer until oil separates. Add spice paste, cook
4-5 min, stirring constantly. Add beef, peanuts, 8
basil leaves, fish sauce and sugar, stir well and cook
slowly 2 more min.

Transfer to serving dish, garnish with basil, lime
leaves and chilis. This version is about 2 stars.
