Piping Hot Easy Pork Steamed Buns (Nikuman) Piping Hot Easy Pork Steamed Buns (Nikuman)
I adapted a recipe a friend of mine taught me to suit our family's tastes.These pork buns are always popular.Each person can easily eat 3 of these!!!I uploaded the recipe as a record for myself...A generous amount of ginger makes the filing taste better. It may seem like a lot but don't worry. You can use grated ginger from a tube if you like.I forgot to add green onions to the filling in the buns in the photos! They're kind of optional.Pinch the dough well closed so that the juices in the filling don't come leaking out.These are really easy!!! For 10 to 12 buns. Recipe by mamityn61

Quick Bun Rieu (Crab Meat Ball Noodle Soup) Quick Bun Rieu (Crab Meat Ball Noodle Soup)
Traditional bun rieu is very time consuming. Getting bun rieu at the restaurant pretty much guarantees that you will not be getting real crab. This quick version takes the work out of it but still maintains the authentic taste with real crab meat. It's not cheap to make, but the perfect treat- yourself-dinner for a cold night.

Fermented Fish Noodle Soup| Bún Mắm Cá Lóc Fermented Fish Noodle Soup| Bún Mắm Cá Lóc
This is similar to Bún Mắm Nước Lèo, which uses a couple different types of fermented fishes to make the broth, as well as a variety of different toppings (roasted pork, stuffed peppers fish cakes, squid, ect.). This is shortened and made a bit more simple with less toppings. The broth is almost identical, using (air) fried snake head fish (cá lóc) as the main topping and local pre fried fish cake for quick light work. The bitter veggies and mix varieties of herbs and chives is what I love eating this soup the most. The funky salted savory sweet soup broth balances with the bitterness fresh veggies, along with the spicy chili and a squeeze of lime, just makes this bowl of noodle soup overwhelmingly flavorful. With sweet, savory, salty, bitterness, crunchy, fresh, funky, spicy, citrusy… just so much going on!
