5 Tasty Vietnamese comfort foods you can make from home

Braised short ribs.

Braised short ribs can be customized according to how you like it although it’s most commonly prepared as a southern Vietnamese stew. You can use your Instant Pot for this one. For additional ideas on how to personalize this comfort food for you, you can look up bo kho recipes. Braised short ribs work great with some star anise and lemongrass. There’s nothing better for some fall-off-the-bone ribs and the sauce left over can be repurposed in the same meal or later with some noodles. (Vietnamese comfort foods)

Turmeric coconut rice.

Regular rice is not good enough. It needs something more – something to make it more bright, golden, and attached to the philosophies of Vietnamese cuisine. Turmeric coconut rice is coconutty, boasts an immersive fragrance, and is a tasty rice you won’t ever forget. It can be served with almost anything and is as good of a side dish as it is at the centre of your meal. Your portions are also easily adjustable, accommodating the whole family if need be and inexpensively.

Vietnamese-style fish.

Vietnamese cuisine has a long lean on fish. Fish and fish sauce is used in several dishes, and needless to say, there’s no shortage of fish preparation recipes out there relating to Vietnam tradition. You can go the way of something like a caramel shrimp or lean on your fish sauce heavily. Serve with some green beans and torn mint leaves for added kick. To simplify this food, search out the sweet nuoc mau sauce typically used in Vietnamese street food. You might be able to find it in your grocery’s ethnic food aisle.

Pho.

In North America, we have soups and stews. In Vietnam, we have pho. Pho is a science in preparation. For skilled cooks in the kitchen, preparing the broth can take precise measurements and tasting to get just right. After you’ve got the right broth going though, you can add some protein – a la beef, chicken, pork, or tofu – alongside some noodles and carefully selected herbs. It’s filling, balanced, and so, so tasty. Just remember to invest as much time as necessary into getting your broth just right.
