dnesna rychlovka na veceru:
(na severo-vietnamsky sposob)
GA KHO
1 (2-inch) piece ginger root, peeled, thinly sliced into quarter-size coins and crushed
3 tablespoons Caramel Sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons water
1 green onion, green tops only, chopped
Steamed rice, for serving
Place the chicken, ginger, Caramel Sauce, fish sauce, salt and water into a saucepan. Give a stir to distribute everything. Cover and bring to a strong simmer over medium heat. Stir again to break up the chicken pieces, then replace the lid. Cook for 10 minutes, periodically stirring to evenly expose the chicken to the sauce. The kho will send fragrant steam out from under the lid. The sauce will increase in volume as the chicken releases its juices.
After the 10 minutes are up, remove the lid and continue cooking to reduce the sauce and deepen the color to a rich reddish brown, about 5 minutes. Replace the lid and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust the flavor with extra fish sauce, if necessary. Garnish with the chopped green onion and serve with plenty of rice.

Caramel sauce (Nuoc Mau) je z bieleho cukru, ktory sa karamelizuje az ma farbu kavy.
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
Z jedneho hrnceka cukru spravite karamel, ktory ma farbu ako na obrazku. Odstavite z plamena a nalejete pol hrnceka vody. Vratite na plamen a miesate pokym sa karamel nerozpusti vo vode. Hotovo. Nemusi sa skladovat v chladnicke.
