This is from Gordon Ramsays Healthy Appetite and hands down my favourite recipe for Pho! Omit the beef if you'd like a vegetarian version, and add bok choi.
A warm and hearty meal, full of ginger. I made this to mimic a non-vegetarian dish that a friend had in a Vietnamese restaurant. Serve it with rice to absorb all the juices.
Can't believe a recipe for Hanh Dam isn't in this database! This is a great side to so many Vietnamese dishes. You can use it in salads, in a bowl of Pho, in sandwiches, or just as a side with just about...
Here is a very low cost and simple recipe for a great Vietnamese chicken recipe, Maho. It is something we eat on a regular basis, and my toddler likes it too, so you know it is yummy.
Our take on a classic Vietnamese street sandwich. The pâté, though optional, is highly recommended to take this sandwich up a notch. Pairs well with rosé all day!
"You can judge how good a Pho soup is by how much concentrated flavor is packed in the broth while still retaining a clean, uncloudy, clear broth. There are 2 very important steps to a clear but intense...
A traditional Hue dish, often present in big banquet such as weddings, holiday. Many said it was exclusively an imperial dish in the 18-19 century. Cook time doesn't count marinate time.
Another recipe from Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet. My Krogers sells lemongrass in a tube that works wonderfully for this since fresh lemongrass is hard to find. note: cook time includes marination.
Posted for a request, this recipe is from 'The Best of Vietnamese & Thai Cooking' by Mai Pham. I haven't tried this recipe yet, the description in the book says it's spicy, sour and a little sweet. Prep...
This is a very strong coffee that is delicious served straight or over ice! The single-cup Vietnamese coffee filter can be found at any Asian Market and is very inexpensive.
Got this recipe when I went on a cooking course in Hanoi and this was one of four dishes I made. It is very flavorful and filling but not heavy. Some of the ingredients are a bit out-of-the-ordinary but...
This is called volcano soup because it is usually served in a volcano hot pot at Vietnamese restaurants, but it's just as good straight out of the wok.
This recipe is widely used by grilled-food vendors in Vietnam. The marinade's sweet lemony flavor greatly enhances the taste of grilled food. Try it with pork (chops, ribs) chicken, beef and lamb. Recipe...
Adapted from "Vietnamese Home Cooking," by Charles Phan. This recipe will work without shrimp heads, but Phan says the heads add richness to the sauce. The recipe also calls for homemade roasted chile...
Sweet and spicy, snapper holds up really well to this cooking, but feel free to use a fish of your liking. Also you can just use fillets instead of whole fish, but for wow factor whole fish is the way....
The Instant Pot® creates a wonderfully soft and tender flan that is creamier than a regular custard flan. You'll recognize the French influence in this Vietnamese version of the "creme caramel," and will...
The dressing is what makes this salad! You don't have to adhere to the list of salad ingredients: put in whatever strikes your fancy. I usually grill up extra chicken breasts when we're having grilled...
Mint is my new love. This dish is flavorful, fresh, easy and fast. I could eat this every day. (The picture that I'm posting shows the noodles with roasted pork fillet with sesame seeds)
Many Vietnamese dishes are perfect for hot weather. This simple noodle salad combines fresh herbs, rice vermicelli, cucumber, bean sprouts, and more, topped with grilled shrimp. Tossed with a tangy sweet...
The same marinade works with other meaty fish, or shrimp, and the sauce is grand even with plain rice. Recipe from the Quick and Easy Vietnemese Cook Book. Cook time does not include MARINATING time.
This recipe, which is pretty easy, is from a cookbook titled Into the Vietnamese Kitchen. I may have adapted the recipe a bit I don't remember, but this recipe is very delicious and her cookbook quite...
This vegetarian bowl version of the beloved Vietnamese banh mi sandwich gets its protein from quinoa and has a kick from a spicy vegetarian mayo sauce.
These springrolls will bring you all the freshness and flavour you cannot find in the fried springrolls. Everytime we have a ladies' lunch, I will always be asked to make them. It is easy to make and the...
Swai is a relatively new fish in the meat counters of my area of the country. While shopping at Sam's, I saw the bags of frozen Swai fillets and they looked so good that I decided to buy them even though...
I like pasta with pesto because it is a one-bowl, one-pot deal. This is a really yummy pesto. If you can't find fresh lemon grass, use an equal amount of grated lemon zest instead.
This dish is very popular in Vietnamese households for everyday eating but is also traditionally served during Tet, the Vietnamese Lunar New Year. The longer you cook the pork belly, the more tender it...
