Laos Foods Recipes

I am officially back from my break! I posted about 60 videos during my first year of blogging but I won't be as motivated this time around because blogging doesn't pay my expenses. As well, my boss just put me on a new project so I'll be busy with my full time job. My cousin noticed that the "Sanoubane" name is missing from my recipe book and website. I took on my father's name and not my mom's Sanoubane name. My cousin wanted me to mention that Kham Teum Sanoubane is my uncle(my mom's brother) who is a popular singer in Vientiane, Laos capital.

Add snow peas and sweet peppers and stir for 2 minutes. Stir fry beef should not take longer than 3 minutes. Serve with sticky rice or khao chow and the Classic Thai / Lao Hot Sauce.

I've seen people evolve this dish by adding potatoes in with the egg. This is one example of generations evolving quickly in North America and the reason why my blog is about authentic Thai and Lao food. If you are serving Dome Kim to Thai and Lao people, do not add potatoes into the pot. Stir Fry Recipe : Dome Kim 1 inch ginger 2 pounds pork that has fat, meat, and skin sections 5 eggs 1 tablespoon oil 1 tablespoon chopped garlic 2 tablespoons brown sugar 3 tablespoons soy sauce ½ tablespoon salt 2 tablespoons fish sauce 2 star anis (optional - also used in Lao Pho) Thinly slice ginger. Chop pork to bite size pieces so that each piece has the fat, meat, and skin. Boil eggs for 20 minutes. Allow to cool and remove shell from egg. In a large pot of high heat add oil and garlic. Stir until garlic is brown. Add pork pieces and stir until brown which is about 10 minutes. Pour water into pot so that it just covers the pork. Add ginger, sugar, soy sauce, salt, and the hard b...
