Vietnamese Side Dishes

Most Vietnamese dishes are served family-style and need some kind of veggie side dish. Rau Muống Xào Tỏi, Stir-fried water spinach and garlic, is always the perfect side dish to balance out savory braised meats and add wonderful texture to complete the family-style meal. I love that the stems have a bit of crunch and the leafy part is super tender. Water spinach is commonly found and cheapest during spring and summer. You can find these super green and leafy veggies sold in a big bunch at Asian grocery stores. No Limit Tip: I like adding smashed garlic and oil to a cold pan before heating it up over medium-high heat. This allows the garlic to heat up and not burn too quickly. Ingredients: 1 bunch water spinach, rinsed, cut into bite-sized pieces 10-12 garlic cloves, smashed 1 teaspoon salt, more or less to taste ½ teaspoon sugar ¼ teaspoon black pepper 3 tablespoons neutral oil #nolimitcooking #vietnamesefood #sidedish #comgiadinh #vietnamesecomfortfood #comfortfood #raumuốngxào #raumuongxaotoi #raumuống

This is the most important side dish in Vietnam in my opinion, and I’ve been posting a ton of recipes that uses these Vietnamese Pickled Veggies/Do Chua!

✨Let’s talk easy and delicious side dishes! Introducing Vietnamese Opo squash soup - cánh bầu tom 🥣 Canh bầu tôm is a popular side dish in Vietnamese cuisine. It’s mild flavour and soft texture makes it ideal as a soothing contrast to any salty braised dish like the “ca kho” (braised fish) I made recently! Not to mention, it’s SO healthy for you 😊 Ingredients for long squash soup: 
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 shallot - 2 long squash
- 200 grams of shrimp - 1 tsp chicken bouillon - 1 tbsp fish sauce - Salt to taste (soup should not be too salty)
- Garnish with green onions, cilantro, and black pepper Full details on my YouTube video - link in bio ◡̈ . . #vietnamesefood #soups #vietnamesecuisine #sidedish #easyrecipes #homecooked #homecooking #veg #recipesoftiktok

You can pickle practically any veggies but pickled bean sprouts or dưa giá is a classic Vietnamese side dish that goes with anything savoury. We usually have this at home to cut through the savouriness of thịt kho (braised pork belly) and salted fish fried rice. This keeps in the fridge for about 3-4 weeks. You might find that you don’t have enough pickling liquid. Don’t worry, eventually the veggies will break down and will become completely submerged. Ingredients: 500g bean sprouts (I only had around 200g in this video so I compensated with an extra carrot) 1 medium carrot, peeled and julienned 100g garlic chives 1 cup white vinegar 1 cup water 1/2 caster sugar Pinch of salt #pickledveggies #pickles #vietnamesefood #sidedish
