I made your wings for family dinner tonight and words cannot describe how delicious their were, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside with the right balance of sweet and salt. Not to mention they're feast for the eye. As a native Hanoian I thank you for making these very useful videos.:)
Hi Helen! Greetings from Southern California! I am second generation Vietnamese American who has been experimenting with recipes at home so I could cook for my family instead of taking them to Vietnamese restaurants. I want them to love Vietnamese cuisine as much as me and food made at home with love is just more flavorful and enjoyable. I tried this recipe over the weekend and my family LOVED IT! It was juicy and tasty just like you said! I can't wait to try more of your recipes! My only criteria for recipes is that it must be quick and easy and this was perfect! Thank you so much again!!! My family has already asked for a repeat!
I have tried deep frying on high heat before, and the wings turned golden brown too fast while the inside was not cooked through. Some other cooks suggest blanch/poach the wings before deep-frying but it is rather time-consuming. In the end I decided that the method in this video worked best for me :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts anyway :)
Helen. Woman, you are teaching me to reconnect with my culture through food. Your cooking closely resembles my mom's so it reminds me of home. I take pictures of my cooking to show her and she's in absolute delight that I'm learning how to cook more Vietnamese dishes! I'll end my rant by saying, I made these and it is sublime. So freaking good. Very crispy, not too salty or overpowering with fish sauce at all. Thank you and please always keep cooking. Maybe post more veggie dishes because I'm old and need more healthy things in my life. =) Thanks!
Very detailed. Like how to lay the chicken in cold oil in the pan. Also not to overcook the fish sauce sauce. Lots of people would have left those details out. Can't wait to try this one as well.
Hi Helen! I've been living in Saigon for two years now, and I've tried this dish many times at various restaurants. Your recipe is better than anything I have tried here by miles. I was skeptical about whether the chicken wings would stay crispy after dipping them in the nước chấm. Boy, was I wrong. Thank you for sharing this amazing, world class recipe.
Another great recipe Helen! Just the way my Vietnamese mother in law fries her wings but the fish sauce made it soooo tasty. My family loved it, made it last night!!
I tried this yesterday, the hot wings absorbed the flavor from the sauce and it was very delicious. My husband liked it. Thanks! Look forward to your other recipes.
Helen, can you tell me where you got your pestle? I like how sturdy and heavy it looks and have seen you use it to smash things like lemongrass and whatnot. I would like to get something sturdy like that.
chị Helen ơi, nhờ xem những video của chị mà giờ em cực kì yêu thích việc nấu nướng đấy. Cảm ơn chị đã truyền cảm hứng cho em. Và hãy tiếp tục làm những video bổ ích như thế này để tụi em học hỏi chị nhé. :D
I have been making these almost every other day..my daughter loves them..everybody in the house love them soo much. Thanks Helen for sharing this amazing chicken wings recipe. Thumb uuuup!
Im so glad I found your channel. Im korean but grew up with viets and I love viet food probably more than korean food and ill be using tons of your recipes.
I love all your recipes! It's been a sucess everytime I follow them. You make it so easy too! For us that love vietnamese food, but are not . Thanks you Helen!
When I am Vietnam I have Canh Ga Chien Nuoc Mam at least once a week. I have not been able to travel to Vietnam for three years now, thanks to Covid, and have been cooking them. Recently the Vietnamese store started to carry Red Boad Nuoc Mam from Phu Quoc and the difference in taste between it and the fish sauce I was using before is WOW. I tried you receipe and it is so good... When I am not sure how to cook something Vietnamese it is your receipes I look for.
you are the best chị Helen ơi :D Em rất vui khi thấy series video như vậy, thế là tuần tới e có động lực nấu những món ngon VN thay vì ngày nào cũng pizza rồi :PPPPPPP
I had to use dried thai chili peppers because we don't have access to the fresh ones here, what kind of peppers were you using? They turned out good though!
Helen, thanks much for your videos... I've already tried your recipes and they all turned out very delicious even thought sometimes I didn't have enough spices in hands! Highly appreciate your works ^^
Those wings look delicious (and so are you in a different way)! I will try your recipe this weekend but won't tell my wife I got it from you on TH-cam.
I did exactly what you said, turn out awesome. I also fried some garlic in the butter, then drizzled it on top of the chicken to make "Canh ga` chien bo* " for my husband 'cause he couldn't eat "nuoc mam". You should try it, very yummy.
thank you for giving out the delicious recipe "Canh ga chien nuoc mam", and for sharing it out with the best dish through your final testings and experiences. I will do it your way!
Thanks, I am really liking your videos here in Alaska. Love Vietnamese food and we have no restaurant where we live. And I agree with imdchang, it's nice to see a pretty face once in a while to match that pleasant voice. Trying the Com tam suon nuong today, and wings next.
Helen can you share a recipe for deep fried yam with shrimps? thanks for all your recipes I've tried a few of them and it turned out perfect!! you are a great cook and young too!!
Johan E Fish sauce is the same for Vietnam and Thailand unless if you're using Anchovy paste, then that's a no no for this dish.. damn, I'm hungry now.
Hello! I followed your recipe exactly how it is and my family loved it! There were no leftovers and we ate it with white rice. I will make it again, thank you for sharing your recipe!!!!! And you are right, cooking fish sauce will stink up your house and I am glad you didn't do that! Lol
To my experience, prep works and cooking with lot of love are two essential elements which can't be missed to produce a great dish. Meditating with a smile while doing a "time consuming" preparation will keep you forever looking young and beautiful as you are. Can't wait for your new vid.. Keep up your great work. How about a video for "Tre' ".

viiviitran was you born in America and what part do you live?
Why do you call her "woman"? That sounds disrespectful
Very detailed. Like how to lay the chicken in cold oil in the pan. Also not to overcook the fish sauce sauce. Lots of people would have left those details out. Can't wait to try this one as well.
so the wings can be cooked through. If you put in hot oil, chances are that the wings are golden brown but the inside is not cooked yet
will do canh chua some time soon. Thanks for your request
Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to estimate the time and add to the recipes :)

I tried this recipe and it was sooo delicious! The chicken was juicy inside and the fish sauce was amazing. Thank you so much!

I tried this yesterday, the hot wings absorbed the flavor from the sauce and it was very delicious. My husband liked it. Thanks! Look forward to your other recipes.
Cheers Helen. I made this using a fresh lime from my garden. It blew me and everyone else away. Cracking recipe.
I love chicken. but i have never thought to prepare this way with spicy fish sauce
dressing. i cant wait to try it
I made this too! Loved it!
Thank you for your support :) Hope you enjoy it!
Helen, can you tell me where you got your pestle? I like how sturdy and heavy it looks and have seen you use it to smash things like lemongrass and whatnot. I would like to get something sturdy like that.

I love your accent. I'm Viet and I can't even talk like that! Kudos to you!
I made these today. All the boys loved!!!!!!!!!!!
the hardest part is maybe controlling the heat when deep-frying to avoid burning the wings... the rest is just a piece of cake ^^
nice suprise for your wife! i like that idea :)
I'm in Love!! And the wings are good too!!
Helen, thanks much for your videos... I've already tried your recipes and they all turned out very delicious even thought sometimes I didn't have enough spices in hands! Highly appreciate your works ^^
hihi I like that idea

hướng dẫn làm siro giải nhiệt mùa hè đi chị ui ^^
You have a very nice kitchen!!!
Wonderful!
How interesting starting the fry with cold oil pre releases the moisture like a double fry keeping it crispy .
Yes, exactly. You can try this way for your meal.
Those wings look delicious (and so are you in a different way)! I will try your recipe this weekend but won't tell my wife I got it from you on TH-cam.

yes you can

Thanks Vickie. I watched a few of your vids and love them too. Subbed
I can't live without fish sauce either ^^
Hi Helen. Can you teach us how to make "canh chua". I love eating it at the restaurant but don't know how to make it at home. Thanks
Thanks, I am really liking your videos here in Alaska. Love Vietnamese food and we have no restaurant where we live. And I agree with imdchang, it's nice to see a pretty face once in a while to match that pleasant voice. Trying the Com tam suon nuong today, and wings next.
Helen can you share a recipe for deep fried yam with shrimps? thanks for all your recipes I've tried a few of them and it turned out perfect!! you are a great cook and young too!!
Bon appetit!
I love fish sauce!!!! Thank you! I must make this tomorrow! It's too late now :( it's midnight!
Wow i just tried this recipe and it tastes exactly like the one i had in vietnam. I used thai fish sauce though, but it's still the same. Well done!
good enough for me.
Johan E
Fish sauce is the same for Vietnam and Thailand unless if you're using Anchovy paste, then that's a no no for this dish.. damn, I'm hungry now.
niam txiv Thanks for the tip. I'm crazy for Vietnamese dishes after my trip to Vietnam.
Johan E You lucky.. I've been dying to go to Vietnam just for the foods. haha
niam txiv you should! It's absolutely worth it. Just pick your restaurants carefully and you'll be fine.
Can I use chilli garlic sauce like the one at the Vietnamese restaurants instead of fresh chilli peppers?
Hello! I followed your recipe exactly how it is and my family loved it! There were no leftovers and we ate it with white rice. I will make it again, thank you for sharing your recipe!!!!! And you are right, cooking fish sauce will stink up your house and I am glad you didn't do that! Lol
what is the purpose of putting the chicken in the cold oil first and then turn the heat on later? (skin get crispier maybe?) Thanks Helen.
Those look delicious!!
My All time favourite 🤩 😋😋
thanks for the info. I think i have bought the anchovy sauce because the color is way off from what i was been told.
You do good job.Thanks.
drooling over your chien bo suggestion hehehe
Oh, co Helen! Could you maybe make a video how to make banh bao? I want to make it but I'm not sure about the dough.
Cám Ơn cháu gái của chú nhiều nhiều lắm
Dạ không có gì ạ 😊
Best wings tasted so far.

May I know what kind of fish sauce? Can you show me the picture of the bottle?
Isabel Yong You can Google "fish sauce"
Thanks a lot :)
hehe ok coming soon
To my experience, prep works and cooking with lot of love are two essential elements which can't be missed to produce a great dish. Meditating with a smile while doing a "time consuming" preparation will keep you forever looking young and beautiful as you are.
Can't wait for your new vid.. Keep up your great work.
How about a video for "Tre' ".
Thanks Helen, shall try it tomorrow :)
