To pregnant women out there: don't watch a delicious meal being cooked at 1 am when you can't have it... My mouth is watering watching this video... I'm Mexican and my hubby is Palestinian and we are HOOKED on Vietnamese food...so delish!!!!
When I made this I used catfish heads instead catfish steaks. It turned out to be delicious and made me want to learn more about Vietnamese food and cooking methods. I'm in love with Vietnamese food.
Canh chua ca kho to yummm , I am so glad she add the fried garlic at the end, I make mine oily garlic so it sizzles on top of the soup. Although no one asked me, I use less sugar water and add 100% pineapple juice.
I have searched all over the web for recipes for Vietnamese food. You have provided the best options I can find and a great way to learn pronunciations as well as a wide variety of Vietnamese food that one may not find in a restaurant. I love what you are doing and hope that you one day can be seen on TV!
I have never made this soup myself but it’s my favorite! When I found your video I had the courage to make this (twice already!) using your recipe and it has turned out soooo delicious! Thankyou for sharing all of your delicious recipes Helen!
Delicious recipe Helen, thank you! I made this for my Vietnamese dad, and he said it 'tasted just like home'! Your clear instructions and descriptions helped me accomplish this for the first time with flying colors. Bravo! I look forward to trying another recipes of yours soon...
Omg thank you Helen for showing me how to make this. I havent really had it much since my mom died when I was young. I think my dad was lazy to make it and now that I know how I can try to make it! :) Thanks a lot!
Thank you for the recipe! Hubby said it tasted better than his mom’s canh chua and that says a lot! The fried garlic at the end was what enhanced the flavor as well!!!
I've been wanting to learn how to cook vietnamese food for so long and i'm so thankful I found your channel. Thank you! You're great and I can't wait to try all your recipes!
Your Great Helen. You blow me away how well you cook so many dishes and they are all excellent and your so young. You cook like a pro. I fell in luv with Tamarind and fish years ago and every time I see fish prepared this way my mouth starts to water. You make cooking look easy and I love hearing you describe what your doing. It is fun to hear what the meal costs to make as well. Cost is important to meal planning. KEEP the Recipes coming. Peace Girl, you Rock.
So happy to see this recipe! I've always made sour soups using a packet -- so much salt! This recipe gives me confidence to use tamarind paste instead :)
This looks so flavorful, colorful, and full of textures! I will make it the next time I drive two hours and spend over $20 on all the ingredients, lol. Thanks for your Vietnamese food recipes!
Cam on chi rac nhieu! Canh cua ca is one of my favourite vietnamese dishes, drooling all over the place!!! Ughhhhhh im stuck at work... you know what?! going to take free from work now to make this... BYEEeeeeeeeeee
My mom makes a very similar dish to this one. Next time when I try to replicate it I'll add the fried garlic oil ;) Thank you so much for the amazing amazing recipes!
The fresh pineapples are also my favorite in the soup. I always try to get to them first. LOL! Helen has a bun rhieu recipe up on her channel. I forget if it's done in Vietnamese with English subtitles or not, though. I think it is, but it's doable if you don't understand Vietnamese since you can print up the recipe and just follow along with what she's doing in the video. :)
i go directly to your channel whenever i needed help.... the flavoring is perfect for this one. the fried garlics made a huge difference in fragrance.... amazing Helen. Thank You!
Very good recipe, however, when preparing it My wife and I did two modifications: we use wild caught salmon instead of the cat fish and we use fresh lime juice instead of the tamarin paste. The result was also very nice. Hope it does not change much the traditional scope of the dish.
I’m trying my first cook with this recipe, I had to sub the elaphent ears for bamboo shoot, but my wife is traditional Vietnamese I hope I can impress her
For me, I usually have standard pantry items on hand like garlic and shallots. Everything else at my Asian supermarket costs around $2 except the fish. Overall around $25 for the first batch. I always end up with way too much extra vegetables/fruits, enough for 1-2 more batches, so this lowers the cost of the recipe to just $15 to account for the need to buy more fish. I cook with salmon, which is more expensive than catfish. I'd say overall it's 1/3 the cost of restaurant takeout.
Chi oi, I just wanna say thanks for bringing out the love for cooking in me. I've been watching ur videos since the very first days and I can see the efforts you put in them. Thank you again and pls keep up ur good work. Love from Australia x
Wow! That looked sooooo yummy !!! I had this for the first time, when I was on a trip and it was sooo good! Unfortunately, I live in the Boon of New Hampshire.... It will be hard to find all these ingredients! OMG, I want to make this sooooo bad! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There's nothing wrong with the way she said it since she is not American. I believe the British and possibly other Europeans actually pronounce the "h" sound in the word "herbs". Notice she often says spring onions, something Americans don't say. We call them green onions or scallions. Spring onions is what is typically used by Europeans.
I like how you tell us, "must have's" to make it what it is, even in your other video for the Viet Curry - Coco milk and Lemon Grass". This is important

This soup is one of my favorites from my childhood, my mom used to make it with shrimp instead of fish bc I was a picky child lol
It was my favorite childhood dish also; and that's why I looked it up, so that I can cook it for my kids.
My grandpa always made this
Omg thank you Helen for showing me how to make this. I havent really had it much since my mom died when I was young. I think my dad was lazy to make it and now that I know how I can try to make it! :) Thanks a lot!

I made this and it was great! Expensive tho and lots of ingredients.
+Bliss point - Yup I agree! Best to go to a Restaurant and call it the day! 😂😂😂😂😂

Great video. Thank you. I’m making this today.
This looks so fab. You make it look easy.
Cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ món canh chua nhìn rất ngon
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! One of my absolutely favourite dishes!
depending on the size of your shrimp, but you may put in before the herbs
A mix of fresh mint and basil is a passable substitute for rice paddy herb, and Vietnamese restaurants in the US often use it.
Chi oi, I just wanna say thanks for bringing out the love for cooking in me. I've been watching ur videos since the very first days and I can see the efforts you put in them. Thank you again and pls keep up ur good work. Love from Australia x
You can also add fish eggs for extra flavour
Thank you for sharing, Co Helen! My mom used lotus stalks instead of the Elephant Ear stalks.
Oh wow!
Check out the links in the info box below the video ;)
YUMMY, I order something like this at the restaurant sometimes because I have no clue how to cook it
