My grandma passed away during the new year. This was one of the first Vietnamese dishes she ever made me. I’ve searched for a recipe exact to hers. This has made my day. Thank u Helen.
There hasn’t been a single recipe that I’ve made from Helen that wasn’t amazing and this Thit Kho recipe is no exception. Don’t be afraid at the beginning when there’s a lot of broth, IT WILL REDUCE and turn into a beautiful, dark caramelized sauce after a few hours. SO DELICIOUS!
Thank you Helen for this recipe! I successfully made this last night :) I enjoy watching your videos! My dad always told me I need to learn to cook (Vietnamese preferably) for my future husband! Lol. Thank you for showing us our Vietnamese cuisine.
Thank you for posting this Helen! I’m first generation in America, and being a mom I want my daughter to eat more Vietnamese food like I did growing up. Your recipe is so much easier to follow then my moms. Look forward to making this tonight.
Just made this yesterday & my wife loved it. I've tried different recipes but this is the best, just like the way my mom used to make it. Thank you so much, Helen. Love your channel!
Thank you Helen, you are one of the most reliable cooking youtuber in my mind. Failed my Viet Stew Pork many times before I found you recipes. Already cook it many times and it’s HIGHLT RECOMMENDED!!!! This recipe remove the “horrible pork flavor” and the gravy is so fatty yet delicious. Very smooth and aromatic. Simple ingredients creates complex taste. The coconut water is really the magic ingredient, it’s not the same with sugared water. Must try if possible. Also, to me, make caramel in oil is easier than in water. Water doesn’t seem to have the heat to brown the sugar before it vapour and leave Stan to the pot. Fried caramel is fantastic!!! Used to cook in a stainless steel pot, but I think CLAY POT is way better. Clay pot is thick with a heavy lid, keep the heat stable so soften the meat and season the pork chunk better.
Hi, I am cooking this dish at the moment. After my Vietnamese friend told me how cook this dish, I bought all the ingredients. On top of that, it sent me this video clip. I am at the stage of 2hr shimmering right now. I can't wait!! Yum~♡
this, in my opinion is probably the most beautiful dish ive ever laid my eyes on. growing up with it, I definitely took this dish for granted but now as an adult, its the perfect food! Rice, with the most delicious carmelized pork and egg. Chefs kiss* thank you for making this video Helen! you bring me back to my childhood in ways i cannot explain!
omg, everything you make reminds me of my mums cooking! it all looks so good! Thanks for bringing back all my childhood memories of the dinner table haha
Probably the most simplest version I’ve seen, thanks for sharing! Im going to try and make this one day. Ever since I tried my friend’s mom’s cooking of it (they’re Vietnamese), I’ve been craving it a ton😭
I made this dish when my little sister visited. It was wonderful being able to share an authentic home cooked meal with my family and loved ones. Thank you.
cam on tat ca nhung gi Helen da huong dan cho moi nguoi cach nau an nhat la o noi xa que huong moi nguoi rat can biet nhung gi Helen da huong dan Vua thuc te,vua tiet kiem va nhat la rat tot cho suc khoe nhat la mon Kho qua
I made this dish last night for my husband and myself, we both loved this dish!!! He said he enjoyed the eggs more than the pork which surprised me because he is a big meat eater!! Very beautiful flavour!
I've been following your recipe channel for awhile now and everything I've made has turned out amazing. Thanks to you! I recently made Hu Tieu Chay for my son and daughter who are both vegetarians and it was a hit. I'm now in search of the vegetarian version for the pork and eggs. I once ate it and it was quite good but never thought to get the recipe from that person. I'm hoping you have it as I can't find it anywhere online.
I cooked the boiled eggs for 2 hours as told in the video. If you boil the eggs right (8-10 mins depending on the size), cool them down completely and peel, then the eggs will not have the green edges even when you cook them 2 more hours together with the pork.
@@hieunguyenrileygekko I’m also Vietnamese and don’t know how to cook this dish. Not everyone is from Vietnam. I’m on my 30s and barely learning. Unfortunately, my mom doesn’t like to teach she is freaking lazy
I made this and it was delicious! I'm Filipina and my husband is American so I usually cook Filipino and American food but when I want to change it up a bit I usually look at your recipes since i usually have the ingredients in my pantry. THANKS for having easy, and awesome recipe, i love how your instructions are easy to follow!
A few days ago i ate this here in Berlin in a vietnamese streetfood market. The sticky rice, the meat and the egg - wonderful. And now , dear Helen, i know how it's made.
Thanks HelenI put the hard boil eggs in the pressure cooker with all the ingredients then started cooking it. It came out pretty good for my first time. The egg soaked up the caramel color and didn't break in the pressured cooker.
Thank you Helen. Now I can treat my Vietnamese wife sometimes by cooking her the yummy food that she cooks for me. The first thing that I cooked was the Crispy Pork and she loved it.
I also use squid brand. Could it be that you marinaded the pork with too much salt/ seasoning powder? Because I think 1/2 cup (120ml) fish sauce should not be salty for that big pot of 1kg pork and 5 eggs. Anyway, taste is a sensitive thing, if you think it is too salty, use less fish sauce next time. For your request, I guess it is Cà tím bung. It is a dish from North Vietnam which I am not quite familiar cooking, I tasted it a few times though. Maybe wil try someday :)
Thank you sooo much Helen! This was my first time making thit kho and even though I burnt the sugar the first time, the rest of the instructions were perfect and it turned out sooo savory and sweet. I am going to make it for my mom one day :D
After VN war really end in early 80s . I am searching this World very well . So what I write down 99% value . How I know ? Simple to answer no one can against me . About cooking I must say this young girl(Helen) is the best of cook .
I'm Vietnamese and sadly, I can't cook Viet food. With your channel and help, I can get through college fine. Thanks! I love thit kho. It's soooo good!
I like the way how u taughts unlike other ppl is like they're in hurry or something. And that's why I always search for Helen Recipe's whenever I need helps with cooking :)
Helen, you make everything so simple and not intimidating for me to try to make. I don't go to anyone else for Vietnamese recipes--not even my mom! Lol
Thank you for the recipe. I’ve been wanting to try cook this for so long and your easy - simple recipe helped me succeed right at the first try 👍 Slow cooking makes the pork waaayyyy better so soft and yummy
This recipe looks great and I want to try it. What kind of cooking oil do you use when you caramalise the sugar @ 1.46? Will sunflower oil do, or do you need a higher smoke point oil? Thanks in advance gor any info
:) I'm learning how to cook vietnamese dishes for the first time after eating it all my life. This is the perfect dish to make on the weekend to eat the entire week. Cam on chi nhieu nha! :)
I never knew the name of this and am so happy to be able to have it again. Although I would 100% recommend adding ginger. Just add some big chunks of ginger with the eggs. Wonderful.
Helen!!!! I thought you were perfect until I saw you cutting pork with your forefinger on the spine of your knife. Shattered my dreams. Your recipes are delicious, though. I've tried 3 or 4 and look forward to trying many more.
Thanks god I have some Vietnamese friends here with me, otherwise I wont find these vid. They recommend me to try make this dish. Looking forward to try it. Nice Vid and very clear.
Thank you Helen for this video and all your other recipes. I was craving this and this turned out so so tasty and very similar to my dad’s thit kho, that I used to eat when I was younger. Thank you for this wonderful channel Helen. I’ve learnt so much xx
I've cooked this allot and its lovely i want to try it with coconut juice but I'm worried about buying the wrong one. Is it different to the one people use to drink ? Cam on xx
uh nếu dùng nước dừa thì ko thắng nước màu cũng được. Chị làm vậy để phòng trường hợp bạn nào ko cho nước dừa mà chỉ cho nước lạnh thì thịt vẫn có màu đẹp^^ Thêm chút nước màu thì màu càng đẹp hơn ko sao :D Trứng thì ko cứng đâu, chị hâm lại sau 1 tuần vẫn ok mà. Có người còn chiên trứng đã luộc cho vàng và dai hơn nữa
Thanks Helen I live near Little Saigon in California and have access to all the good Vietnamese food but there is nothing like being able to make it yourself at home. Thanks for sharing. What equipment and video software do you use. I want to start to record my home recipes.
my mom makes this for me but not that often because she is often busy its delicious and won't spoil even if placed outside for twelve days (when covered with banana leaves of course). this dish is often made on special occasions or when the markets are closed in vietnam.
Hi Helen!! I tried this last night and it was so yummy!! My only regret was making so little. Cant wait to try your other reciepes! Keep up the good work :)
I just made this and it turned out great however i think the 1/2 cup of fish sauce is a bit much.. i suggest doing 1/4 cup first and then adding more if needed. Thanks for the recipe helen!

It's enough for 8-10 ppl maybe... depending on whom you feed hehe
Thanks a lot for the encouragement. Your request is noted.

I love this dish! I don't know any Vietnamese person that does not love eating this. It brings back warm memories of our childhood.
This is by far the best recipe for Thit Heo Pho - my family will be forever thankful for your recipe :)
This isn't a pho
omg, everything you make reminds me of my mums cooking! it all looks so good! Thanks for bringing back all my childhood memories of the dinner table haha
Tried this today, alittle salty, I added water to it. Tastes really good!

Ginger isn't traditional in this. I'm sure it's good just not what the dish is.
This looks amazing, Chi oi! I was wondering would the thit kho taste batter if I use brown sugar instead of regular sugar? ☺️🙏🏻
Yes you can! It just change a little bit in color and taste of food, and it is still delicious.
@@HelenRecipes thank you Chi!
Helen!!!! I thought you were perfect until I saw you cutting pork with your forefinger on the spine of your knife. Shattered my dreams. Your recipes are delicious, though. I've tried 3 or 4 and look forward to trying many more.
Thanks for making this look easy, the way you cook it reminds me of my aunt's thit kho when I was a kid.
Made this today with some belly pork on special offer at the supermarket. Very nice. Thanks or sharing!
