Thank you (: My girlfriend is Vietnamese and does not have family near us. Sometimes she gets very sad because she misses the food from there so sometimes we go to the vietnamese market to get food there. Today I decided to cook her this because she mentioned she really wanted to eat it again. She loved it (: Thanks again
I love the way you boil the chicken separately with the bones first, which then gives you the rich bone broth for the congee, ready to go, instead of plain water!
good idea!! I always think its a good way to use up leftover meat, but my Vietnamese friend say "chicken must be cooked in the soup or not tasty" So i did not. I so glad you mention this, now I know someone have experience to the taste of it this way! Thanks for post ^.^
I’ve made this recipe three times now. It’s definitely the most simple and most delicious recipe for congee I’ve found. I can’t get enough of it. It is so tasty and always makes me feel comfy, warm and healthy. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you very much for this recipe. My son is feeling bad and I am going to make this. My mother used to make this for me. Thank goodness we have an asian market here in Austin Texas. It is cold and raining today. Perfect soup. You make cooking vietnamese food fun!!!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! This was a childhood comfort food for me too. Now I want to cook it for my kids to introduce them to the Vietnamese food I was brought up on. Dad used to serve this with a side of Vietnamese herbal coleslaw. Edited to add: I used your recipe and it was a success! My family loved it! So delicious!
My grandmother used to make this when we were kids :D She's Dutch-Indonesian so we know it as "bubur ayam" but it's very similar. It's nice with thinly-sliced leek or cabbage in it and a good way to sneak vegetables into kids. I'll have to give it a try, my grandmother doesn't really follow a recipe so I never did work out how to do it properly. Thank-you for the instructions! :D
So I found this video today and I tried it. It was so flavourful and aromatic, it made my kitchen smell wonderful! I was intimidated by the whole chicken, so I used chicken wings instead, and I threw in a turnip with my onion, but it came out wonderful! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipie~
Thank you thank you thank you cam on ! Finally a video of this a great video and English and viet subtitles my husband is vietnamese and he has a fever this morning so ill try and make it as good as you !
Interesting that you use both glutinous and jasmine rice. My parents only used jasmine rice in our congee and we like ours with less water so it's more dense. I like eating mine topped with sliced green onions, sliced cilantro, fried shallots, and homemade garlic hot pepper. Mmmm!!! BTW, your hair looks great!!
Thanks soo much for the recipes!! I just finish cooking, it a better way to cook, before every time I cook it burnt button of pot!! It taste so good too, but I used 2 big chicken leg quarter.. Lol still taste good!
I have had chicken porridge in almost every Asian country (excl. Laos and Burma/Myanmar). It seems to be quite ubiquitous amongst Asian cultures (thanks China). My favorite versions happen to be South Korean and Malaysian. Korean version had tons of garlic that was sweet and mellow. Malaysian version was very bold do it adding dark soy sauce and a little Black Vinegar.
You don't need to. I like the way you speak- it's actually cute-:) Thank you for sharing your videos. I'm going to try this recipe today - it's cold and snowing outside. I love Vietnamese food. Tnx again
Make this today for mam and dad. first time in my life. And i am 43 .Mam's kooking is the best....but my dad told me....this is one of the best chao ga I Have. :). I told him....learning from youtube. Tnx
yes you can use the same technique to cook plain porridge, and then add in ground pork when the congee is almost cooked. But then it is not "chicken congee" anymore. It's ground pork congee hehe
Helen! Do you happen to know how mien ga, the soup with the clear glass noodles? The broth tastes similar using chicken. It would be so delightful if you could show us how to make your own version of it!
Thank you from a lost california girl who loves world quisine. This looks like the kind of chicken soup I've been looking for. My birdies are kinda puny so in they both shall go to make the most wonderful soup in the world. Going to the store to buy fresh ginger and fish sauce tomorrow.
Toi thich chao ga rat nhieu! I will give your recipe a try right away. I was always making it a bit thicker and also I love the chicken skin inside it :3 And my vietnamese friend once told me that for chao ga it is better when the chicken is a bit older but I dont know about that. I personally love vietnamese kitchen! Cam on rat nhieu
Omg nice i remember when i eat this long time ago in a hospital in vietnam, i was so hungry but the doctor keeping me starve for about 2 days. And then they allow me to eat, so they bough this chao ga. And it was the most delicious thing I have tasted in my entire life, i was addicted to chao ga like a zombie on drugs. OMFG I GOING TO COOK THIS RIGHT NOW
Hello, thank you for your fantastic recipes. I never find your old recipes on your website because there is no search engine on your website. Do you have the link to the complete recipe for chao ga? Thank you.
This "chao ga" so nice it remind me of viet street food at night time to eat "chao ga " or "chao long" , you can make " chao thit bam" as well helen when someone is sick. thanks for sharing Helen I will try your recipe for chao ga. Do you make "canh cu cai muoi" as well?? Cheers
A so called "Suppenhuhn" is a chicken with more fat than a normal chicken. In germany we use the "Suppenhuhn" to create a broth and I bet it is the right choice for your dish here.
My grandmother made hers a bit thicker and added other ingredients. I noticed other Vietnamese made it differently. like my aunt made it not so thick. and I love to add soy sauce to it in the bowl.
Thank you, very imformative. I want to make this for my 15 month old baby. Have you ever added small shredded carrots? I had chao before and there were carrots added. I just don't know how or when to add them.
Thank you (: My girlfriend is Vietnamese and does not have family near us. Sometimes she gets very sad because she misses the food from there so sometimes we go to the vietnamese market to get food there.

Thank you 🥰 I think you can do it!
I love the way you boil the chicken separately with the bones first, which then gives you the rich bone broth for the congee, ready to go, instead of plain water!
Your recipes are so reminiscent of my mom’s! Having moved out, this is a huge comfort for me. Thank you so much!
Glad you like them!
Thank you so much for these tutorials. My mum is a fussy eater and amazing cook and she fell ill. She complimented this recipe I’m so grateful
after thanksgiving, i use the left over turkey!! my favorite!!
good idea!! I always think its a good way to use up leftover meat, but my Vietnamese friend say "chicken must be cooked in the soup or not tasty" So i did not. I so glad you mention this, now I know someone have experience to the taste of it this way! Thanks for post ^.^

Hellen, you are the reason why i love to cook vietnamese dishes. Fan since 2012 ❤️

@@HelenRecipes thank you for everything ❤️
The way my mom used to cook it. My biggest comfort food growing up. Always used a little bit of fish sauce to add some extra flavor.
Thank you very much. Wishing you much happiness in this holiday and the year to come.
This looks so simple an delicious. I usually make my congee on the thick side, like a thin porridge. Need to try it more soupy some day.
Helen, you know how to make everything I love! how is that possible? omg! bless you woman!
I make mine soupy like this video. Honestly it's been god send since having gastritis. Works wonders.
I just cooked this today and it's a delicious meal I like mine with cilantro bok choy and green onions yummy combination for a cold
It's winter here in 2019. I need a hot bowl of chao. Thank you for this recipe.

Her English is fine. If you want to watch Vietnamese cooking videos, then I suggest watch Cathy ha cooking express.

Hello, thank you for your fantastic recipes. I never find your old recipes on your website because there is no search engine on your website. Do you have the link to the complete recipe for chao ga? Thank you.
Sorry, it was an old recipe, so I don't remember about the place I save this recipe. I will find and give it to you soon.
@@HelenRecipes thank you verymuch
This "chao ga" so nice it remind me of viet street food at night time to eat "chao ga " or "chao long" , you can make " chao thit bam" as well helen when someone is sick. thanks for sharing Helen I will try your recipe for chao ga. Do you make "canh cu cai muoi" as well?? Cheers
I went to Vietnam last year,loved chao long!
um chi cung hay lam vay ^^ chac hom nao chi lam them video goi ga ^^ Chuc em giang sinh va nam moi vui ve nhe
what does carbs mean?
Can you give me a general idea of how much salt, sugar, and chicken stock to put in as a basic ingredient? What you do recommend?
A so called "Suppenhuhn" is a chicken with more fat than a normal chicken. In germany we use the "Suppenhuhn" to create a broth and I bet it is the right choice for your dish here.
For each liter (4 cups) water, you can put around 1.5 tsp salt and 1 tsp chicken stock
so nice. I am eager to try it at my home.
shallot?
Hey helen can i use chicken stock cube instead of chicken.. To make chicken broth??
my goodness so easy! thank you so much, I'll be making this in the near future :)
Great! I'm glad you've succeeded with my method ^^
Cooks vietnamese food and she's gorgeously cute.
Merry Christmas Helen!! I like this soup. Thank you, for good recipe..
Hi Helen, am I correct in assuming this porridge is not suitable for freezing?
Better than chicken noodle soup all my friends love it!
Hi helen!! Can i use ground pork meat? it changes the taste?. Thank you!!
my pleasure... Hope you'll give it a go soon ;)
I want some 😭😭😭😭😭 I’m so hungry
She's beautiful and this is an excellent recipe.
Thank you so much 😊
Cuteness levels exceeded. Subscribing at full.
Max flavor achieved.
Thank you so much. I can make this at home now😋
My grandmother made hers a bit thicker and added other ingredients. I noticed other Vietnamese made it differently. like my aunt made it not so thick. and I love to add soy sauce to it in the bowl.

Dạ, em cám ơn chị nha ^^
Thank you, very imformative. I want to make this for my 15 month old baby. Have you ever added small shredded carrots? I had chao before and there were carrots added. I just don't know how or when to add them.
