[Souvi0416]

My husband is cambodian and I'm going to try to make this for me. Usually when his family make it they put coconut soda but I don't really like it sweet is your's sweet also?? do cambodian people make the broth one that isn't sweet usually??

[forg3tm3not770]

@prathnanhem319 You're welcome and thank you for watching.

[snipejone5]

[forg3tm3not770]

@snipejone5 Hi! Yes, that is on my list for future releasements.

[kounkhmer101]

I'll say, this dish was so delish! My family and friends gave me a thumbs up! Thank You!

[forg3tm3not770]

@kounkhmer101 I'm so glad to hear that and thank you for trying this recipe.

[Snaehbongmouy]

@kounkhmer101  who sang this song and where can i listen to it on youtube.

[destiny1234678]

why do u put eggs on your meat well my mom dont

[forg3tm3not770]

@destiny1234678 to make it more tender

[destiny1234678]

@forg3tm3not770 o OK thank you im khmer to

[conansgrandpa]

can you tell me the brand and size of your electric hot pot/skillet? thanks...love you videos..keep them coming

[forg3tm3not770]

@conansgrandpa Hi! Thank you so much for your comment. I'm sorry, but I do not know the brand and size. You can get any skillet out there to use whether it's the gas version or electric version.

[smokymon69oun]

It went very well my dear loved it n thank you for sharing it as well!;)

[rasni401]

Don't you put lime in it? I see my brother in law make it he always add lime butt then again he str8 from cambo so Myb they do it different there? If at all

[forg3tm3not770]

@rasni401 I think the lime he's putting is for the sourness (I know...creating my own word...hehe!) and that's where the tamarind base comes in. Lately though, I've been substituting the tamarind base for tom yum paste.

[khmerbutterflygrl]

You should try coconut soda instead of water and switch roasted peanut for actual peanut butter it will make the Yao-hon broth very tasty.

[forg3tm3not770]

@khmerbutterflygrl Oh wow! That is different and sounds delish. I will try that the next time. Thanks so much for your positive input!

[XxXSaNdy603XxX]

MmM looks soo damn yummy!! love all of ur videos =)

[forg3tm3not770]

@XxXSaNdy603XxX Thanks so much!

[kirihara120]

Coconut cream and tamarind base? This is very unorthodox ya hon. It looks interesting. I might try this recipe someday.

[GoodMorningMisterMam]

bong, how much water do you put in?

[forg3tm3not770]

@GoodMorningMisterMam Hi paowne...I just put it til it almost reaches the top of the pot.

[khmerz1]

@mskatwoman022008 You're welcome paowne srey.

[LastXdeth]

Doesn't Ya Hon originate from China?

[forg3tm3not770]

@LastXdeth Sorry, I do not know.

[SinfulBlissxis3]

o wow, that's all the ingredients for the broth? i would think it would be more i guess everyone makes it different, looks good! now i'm craving it! :)

[techisdestruction]

btw what is the egg on the beef for? to keep it moist?

[forg3tm3not770]

@techisdestruction It's to keep it tenderize.

[techisdestruction]

THANKS so much! 

[bnhek562]

Ohhhh it looks sooo good.

[whitekryptonite91]

[vogelbekdier445]

[mizpuppet]

Bong where's the tha-koun???? lol

[forg3tm3not770]

@mizpuppet Hi paowne srey! Though I love tha khoun, it's illegal to sell it here in GA and so we're always trying to get it from Florida or grow our own.

[nc6129]

[GGSBY]

yummo. this is so much better than chinese hotpot!

[no615patience]

[forg3tm3not770]

@no615patience Hi! Yes, you can use any brand of Asian BBQ Sauce.

[CryingAngel2025]

can you make nom krok?

[forg3tm3not770]

@CryingAngel2025 Hi! I will learn and try to post it when I perfect it.

[MelissaMongo]

hey i'm from canada and i've never seen the dragonfly brand of bbq sauce where i live. is there another brand or sauce you recommend? thank you! :)

[forg3tm3not770]

@MelissaMongo Hi! We don't have this brand in our stores either anymore and I've tried others that tastes just as good. It doesn't matter what brand...just get the Asian BBQ Sauce and it should work.

[miss99sexy]

wow this what i'm looking for ,thanks:D

[InfamousYG]

[daboiwisper]

Good shit!!! I've been trying to learn how to make this since like forever. My mom never make this anymore. But isn't there "pahok" in "ya-hon"?? That the best about it. That stinky after taste in your mouth while you trying to cool your mouth down from the spicyness. Lol...

[forg3tm3not770]

@daboiwisper LOL! Not in my version.

[smokymon69oun]

[layzie187x]

[melinda909]

mmmm... now I'm hungry

[whizkid00000]

whats in the dragonfly bbq sauce?....my mom's "ya hon" is curry-like...

[forg3tm3not770]

@whizkid00000 You don't have to use the dragonfly brand.

[forg3tm3not770]

@whizkid00000 You don't have to use the dragonfly brand...any asian bbq sauce would work.

[TheComplementor]

1:41 "Sngao chrook, cha chein veetameen sroh!"

ROFL

[jakeychan87]

my aunt makes the best ya hon.

she puts chicken feet in it. yum

[msmayan]

I love your videos! I'm always home sick so its good to have comforts of home at your finger tips :)

P.S If you get a chance, please check out my khmer videos and tell me what you think ^_^

[forg3tm3not770]

@msmayan Hi! I didn't see any khmer videos on your page. So glad that you enjoy my videos.

[patnarutorukia]

that's another interesting take on yahon. still looks really yummy though :) . I make it different with tom yum paste.

[forg3tm3not770]

@patnarutorukia Yes, I've been using tom yum paste too.

[snoozie1305]

ooooh yumm! mouth watery goodness! I'm filipino but my boyfriend is cambodian, and i get excited everytime his parents cook this cuz i love it so bad! yumm.. glad to know how to make it :D thanks!

[superxsteezy]

I f-cking loooooove ya-hon! I taught my filipino boyfriend how to eat it and he helllla diggs it(:

[killakane215]

where im at i dont see the tamarind base...can i do without? or is a major need?

[aznguhwidluv]

u can do without, i dont use it for this dish :)

[killakane215]

i make it a whole diff. way but it seemed weird with the tamarind base lol...just had to ask =)......It totally sucks being in an american suburbs....no asian ingredients at all =|

[forg3tm3not770]

@killakane215 You can substitute tamarind base for tom yum paste (hot and sour paste)

[forg3tm3not770]

Hi killakane215! No, it's not a major need, but only for preference. I like mines on a sour side as well.

[killakane215]

lol....ok danks! i tried ur other recipes too and dey came out great but my husband likes his food sweet =P

i was actually gonna make some ya hon tomorrow too actually!

Keep up the good videos!!!!

[forg3tm3not770]

LOL! Same here! It's my brother's 29th bday tomorrow and I'm making yahon for our small bday gathering for him.

[Johnny978]

lols wow we make it somewhat different, hahaha =P i used the bbq sauce, cocunut milk, and coconut juice lols =P

[bsim8331]

can you tell me what the egg on the beef is for. also you can use chunky peanut butter and it work fine

[forg3tm3not770]

the egg on the beef is to tenderize it...thanks for the recommendation of peanut butter!

[WeheartKampuchea]

This dish everyones uses a different blend but the basic is the same make the broth and get your favourite meats and veggies. Great video thou.

[KeraPera]

Wow I think that this is a great fusion recipe. BBQ sauce with coconut milk and all. I'm thinking of trying this. My mom doesn't really cook Khmer food and I will surprise her with this the next time she visits.

[forg3tm3not770]

I hope she enjoys it.

[teamkvs]

what is the purpos of having the raw egg in the middle of the beef?

[forg3tm3not770]

mixing the raw eggs with beef makes it tender.

[LunarIce]

[springrollfvrchicago]

I've seen this made so many different ways. I'm going to try using the coconut milk to see if it will give it some more flavor. Quail eggs a must for ya hon and takouen too! What's the purpose of the egg over the raw beef? Thanks for the video, this will be useful next time I cook.

[forg3tm3not770]

You're welcome springrollfvrchicago. The purpose of the eggs over beef is to make the beef more tender.

[kcl060]

yummm!! looks delcious!! My mouth is watering!!

[forg3tm3not770]

Thanks kcl060!

[forg3tm3not770]

You're very welcome lustyblossom and thank you for watching.

[forg3tm3not770]

You're so silly! Kanica n Sanna said that your dad made some last time they visited.  I would love to try his soup!

[nlakud]

this looks so good -- im used to having my grandmom make hers with coconut soda and a can of beer lol

[forg3tm3not770]

Now that sounds very good...I can't drink beer, but I know most people like to use coconut soda in their soups such as kaw...i'm going to try that next time...thanks for the tip!

[SaoChampassak]

looks yummy! will have to try it this weekend. thanks for sharing.

[forg3tm3not770]

You're welcome and tell me how it goes.

[wsupninja90210]

you guys forgot the alcohol lol, hennessy or heineken

[forg3tm3not770]

Yes, alcohol adds a nice touch to any dish, but unfortunately, I'm allergic to it...:P

[MeSoHorny213]

I will definitely try this soon!!!

[forg3tm3not770]

Great! Tell me how it goes.

[megamunchit2008]

I love Ya-Hon, my mom makes the best Ya-hon ever! I've had 5 other types of Ya-hon and no one tops my moms. Her sauce, number 1!

[forg3tm3not770]

Great...how about sharing the recipe such as how I had shared mines?

[2shourt]

mmm i can just smell it

[XVanLoCX]

The video is awsome, i love ya-hon xD and i love the song, can you send me the song?

[forg3tm3not770]

Sure...just send me your email address

[sreycamai]

Bong Srey! Hey! It's Renda. My friend linked me to this video since I don't know how to make yao hon. I didn't realize it was your video until the end of it. Thanks a bunch for the tutorial! OooOh. Congratulations on the little one, too!

[forg3tm3not770]

Hey Renda! How are you doing? What a small world huh? Hehe! Funny how you had to hear about my channel from your friend instead of Solenna, Sokret, Chantha, and the rest of the Pcola girls b/c they all know about it including Vannary's sis in law, Trish...hope you enjoyed the video and thank you for the congrats! *^_^*

[ygladybopha]

im gonna watch all your videos when im not living with my mom and aunt anymore so i can learn. i cant learn anything by watching them. like watching these better.

[forg3tm3not770]

Thanks ygladybopha!

[mouat01]

Thank you so much for the yo-han recipe, I've been searching for it. It looks delicious, can't wait to make it.

[forg3tm3not770]

Thank you for watching this and tell me how it goes! *^_^*

[PreanNary]

Hello, My wife is pregnant with our 1st child and she is craving Patlou. If you could please email me the recipe and I'll try to make it for her. Thank You.

[forg3tm3not770]

Hi PreanNary! I have to get this recipe from my mom first and when I do, I'll email it to you through the msg box instead of comments box. Congrats on your first child! My first child is due this summer so I understand cravings and I'm glad that you're doing something about it b/c my husband doesn't understand.

[ScionT2B]

It thought its pronounced ''Yao-hon'' not ''Ya-hon'', Im guessing thats the Phnom Penh Dialect because my parents are from Battambang.

[forg3tm3not770]

You're right ScionT2B...my mom is from Battambang too. I guess my khmer isn't that clear.

[PreanNary]

Can You Show me how to make PatLou?

[forg3tm3not770]

Hi PreanNary! I'm sorry, but I don't know how to make it b/c I don't really like to eat it. My mom usually makes it though and I can get the recipe from her if you'd like.

[spleasant1]

Hi I'm new to You Tube. Just wanted to let you know it's great watching you cook, do makeup, nails, etc... You are very talented!

Thanks for posting!

[forg3tm3not770]

Thank you very much spleasant1 for watching my videos.

[k1ky00]

OOO I like this!! LOL I love how you just toss things into the pot and loot each other meat. LOL

[forg3tm3not770]

LOL! Thanks k1ky00!

[pearie07]

I have tasted a lot of different recipe of Yo-han and by far no one has come close to my recipe or match it.. the only thing our ingredients have in common is the regular sugar and fish sauce, coconut milk and dragonfly bbq sauce.. all the other ingredients you use just look nasty..I would tell you my recipe but I swore to secrecy..dont be jealous, if your lucky..one day i'll let you try it. wink*

[asilentdyingangel]

I miss eating ya-hon!!!

[iluvcambodianfood]

I tried your recipe, the tamarind soup base made the soup sour. It didn't taste good like I thought it would. I like how I usually cook mine. Thanks for posting the recipe because I been looking for recipes on cambodian food, since I love to cook cambodian food. However, I haven't found any good recipes yet.

[forg3tm3not770]

Yes, that was the purpose of the tamarind soup base for my version...to have a sour kick to it as long as you do not overdose it. You're welcome and good luck finding your "good recipes". Please share if you do find some.

[sarimsok]

I usually cook the noodles in the broth, than the meats and veggies on top.

[KhmerSerey1]

you're welcome jong poeuv lake muay !! thanks for answering all Serey1 comments,you shouldn't have,i'm wasting away your life,yet i benefit much from your instructional videos,i have nothing to offer but my thanks,well so long love,i'm off to another instructional video now " how to play piano " ;)

[lovelykrystal]

I love the mini strainer idea; you're so clever!

[forg3tm3not770]

Thanks lovelykrystal! It just makes things a little easier.

[snowdrop19]

looks soo good i will try it as soon as i find the right bbq sauce for this recipe or something close enough

[forg3tm3not770]

Thanks snowdrop19! Tell me how it goes. I'm actually making this dish in 3 days.

[bummers417]

i have to try making this. i didnt know it was made this way. by the way the song sounds pretty good, whats it called and how can i get it?

[forg3tm3not770]

Hi bummers417! There are many versions of this hot pot. I do not know the title/artist of this song but if you provide me your email addy, I can email it to you via triple w's(dot)yousendit(dot)com

[PrinzessJulez]

I was finally able to make this dish yesterday for my family. My husband loved it. thank you so much for the reciepe

[forg3tm3not770]

I'm so glad that your family enjoyed it. You're very welcome PrinzessJulez and thank you for watching!

[CDDANIEL911]

Is this hot pot ? I like it .I better go make some Tom yam .

Thanks for sharing .

[forg3tm3not770]

Yes, this is one of the many hot pots. You're welcome CDDANIEL911!

[sodavan]

Your videos are awesome! Thanks for posting these. I will subscribe to you.

[forg3tm3not770]

Thank you very much sodavan for taking the time to watch my videos and subscribing.

[Trilinguist]

I see that you don't like cooking with Kapi? I absolutely hate the smell of Kapi, but I love the flavor it gives. Try less fish sauce, put some Kapi in there, and use palm sugar instead of white sugar. Its more authentic using palm sugar and I think it has a better flavor.

[forg3tm3not770]

Hi again Trilinguist. Who said that I don't like Kapik? Have you ever watched my somlor curry tutorial? I believe that Kapik goes with certain soups, but this yahon style is my way. I've tasted different types of yahon styles and this is what I had created through my own preference. I totally agree with you on the differences b/t palm sugar and white sugar but as I had stated in my last 2 comments for you (on my other videos), not everybody has a farmer's market down the road from them.

[ThaiLakornFanatic]

Wow! I've never had this recipe before...it looks really good though! I love the song for this video, by the way.

[forg3tm3not770]

Thank you very much ThaiLakornFanatic!

[sophiejabjabb]

thank u ,, do u have more to cook, i been cookin from ur reciep it good thanks a lot..=)

[forg3tm3not770]

Thank you sophiejabjabb and yes, I hope to make more videos within the next coming weeks.
