OMG!! These are my favorite!! ThankYou for this recipe. It’s so weird how I’m in my 40’s and finally learning how to cook my favorite childhood Laotian foods as I’d always thought it was so difficult to make. Man what a relief to know they’re actually all so simple. 😱🤩🥰🔥🙏🙏🙏
Wow. This is Exactly like the Vietnamese version I had as a kid. We bought them or received them as a gifts. Now I can make them at home. I do have a triangle mold for that banana wrapping rice cakes. Thank you for bringing back my childhood memories.
@@SaengsKitchen good job bro..all our Lao dish needs to be share...bro good job..Lots of Lao dish is being copies.. But Lao don't get credit..People takeen. Our Laotian dish and rename as they own..EXAPMLE LIKE THE FRIED BANANA NOW PEOPLE MAKE AS A CHIP COMPANY. WE KNOW WE ATE THAT SINCE THE 80S.
The Food Network is so worn out they can't even dream about being this good. This young man is super smart, fun, entertaining, talented and interesting. He also shows most of us food we've never eaten! Who's Guy Fieri? HAHAHA! 🤣 Just subscribed. 😊
Would love to see you make khao poon, grilled lemongrass beef (or anything savory with lemongrass!), laab (not the minced kind, but the kind where you slice the grilled beef really thin and mix with all kinds of herbs and roasted rice), the roasted tomato dip, etc. :)
Sa bai dee/ສະບາຍດີ. That’s my favorite you should know that you made me miss my grandmother in Lao 😂. Laos food is one of most underexposed cuisines. I’m Laotian but now I live in NZ, in the future I’m planning to open Laos restaurant here. Thank you so much to spread our Laos food 🙏☺️☺️🇱🇦 and new subscribe here❣️ Cheers!
You have such a gift, cousin. ❤️ 🏆🥇 Your videos make me brave enough to try making something that I love so much, and somehow also instilling me with confidence that I’ll succeed. Thank you for the inspiration and please keep going. ✨ You are saving those of us who did not pay attention when mae cooked. 🥲
My aunt (RIP) used to make this but instead of coconut it was savory with mung bean and pork. I’m not sure if there’s a name for it. But I never learned from her and it makes me sad 😭
We also have this same exact dessert in Java, Indonesia.. we called it Mendut 🙂 I think Laos and Javanese is related in the past. It also remind me of my childhood when I helped my grandma to roll the shredded coconut filling and wrap it up with banana leaves 😄 For the coconut better use the young one which is more tender.
@@nhuyle6911 According to Javanese historical books many Javanese royals married Champa Princesses in the past, so the relationship between Javanese can Vietnamese could be on blood relatives level.
I used May’s kitchen recipe for this and it was a disaster bc her liquid measurements were totally wrong. I left her a message a year ago and she never replied.
