How to make Khao Pun, Khao Poon, Kapoon

[Souvi0416]

When I make Kow Poon i just crush up the dry thai peppers a few and put it in with the curry when I fry it that makes it spicy and also I use shrimp paste to add flavor

I hate ignorant stupid Asians that comment on all types of Asian dishes saying it belongs to their kind. Just eat the damn food!

[BongDeeful]

Bomb!

[LMFAOAlexander143]

[lakorns]

I honestly don't care where this originate. I am fine as long as it is tasty. End of story. Thanks for the recipe. I use paprika to make the curry more red and it makes it more pungent in taste and aroma.

[lakorns]

@lakorns I forgot to add, I add in meatballs too.

[unspokensinz]

@lakorns really? Meatballs? I've got to try that next time. :)

[lakorns]

@unspokensinz I just had some today. Tried out your recipe because I tend to like to make it different every time. Meatball with it taste really good if you are a fan lol they tend to disappear first every time we make kapoon with meatballs.

[LMFAOAlexander143]

sorry unspokensinz.I make a mistake.u mention this was Lao food.and I thank u for being real.some people doest do that.that's wut I hate.they r bran washer.but u real ass Hmong.

[unspokensinz]

@LMFAOAlexander143 Right, thanks :)

[CandieVue]

Awesome video. :) looks really great and yummy. And I was just about to make some in a bit but super super spicy. :) this is definitely one very good asian soup dish. :)

[LMFAOAlexander143]

I must say this is lao food .not hmong.

[kendraxiong]

@LMFAOAlexander143 the reason hmong ppl make it so much is because theyre also from laos/thai land. we dont claim it as ours we just make it : D

[mimilee100]

what do you do to make it more spicy

[unspokensinz]

@mimilee100 I personally use mexican chili. If you want I can send a pic. Sorry it took so long to reply

[sbounmany]

@mimilee100 for myself....to make it more spicy i use thai chili peppers and if you fry the curry more it makes it more spicy that way too.

[birchnbark]

What kind of oil are you using?

[unspokensinz]

@birchnbark It just canola oil from the grocery store, nothing special. Any oil will do. :)

[birchnbark]

@unspokensinz  Ok, thanks, I had this for the first time the other day and now I'm hooked!

[willmoua1]

thanks sinz. Don't listen to all the negative bullys. Keep your doing your thing.

[unspokensinz]

@willmoua1 Thanks bro! :) Next time you make kapoon post a video response!

[hellokitty01ify]

okay i'm going to have to say this it's not authentic. Straight up lao kao poun you take a mortar chop some lemongrass, garlic, pepper, shallots, add shrimp paste. In the pot your suppose to boil your chicken with kaffir lime leaves and galangal.

[unspokensinz]

@hellokitty01ify I love how ignorant people like you who think they're so smart do NOT read info box. I never said my food was authentic. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[willmoua1]

A good tip....when cooking the oil and garlic, add red curry AND yellow curry. Then add your meat, Galanga, mix together for a while (the curry needs to cook thoroughly to avoid bitterness) then add coconut milk. Personally, I like only one can. After the bamboo, curry, oil, garlic, galanga, lime leaves, (quail eggs yum) marinates for a few minutes, then add one can of coconut milk. Then add the broth from the cooked chicken...Trust me, I'm a guy and all the relatives think my kapoon is bomb!

[unspokensinz]

@willmoua1 sounds good!

[lazian2106]

@willmoua1 CORRECT!:)



[salsa89rita]

i like mine with been sprouts!!!! really any way ........I really like the music!

[unspokensinz]

@salsa89rita I've never tried it with bean sprouts - will have to next time - thanks!

[salsa89rita]

i like mine with been sprouts!!!! really any way ........

[sxcelite12]

i use home boiled bamboo shoots. btw... really loving the music!

[unspokensinz]

@sxcelite12 you have home growned bamboo? :)

[sxcelite12]

@unspokensinz yes i do... and its the best!!

[unspokensinz]

@sxcelite12 ugh..JEALOUS!! Those are the best. Homegrown baby bamboos!

[sxcelite12]

@unspokensinz they are...

[sxcelite12]

i use home boiled bamboo shoots.

[phae83mora]

can i use conconut cream instead of the conconut milk? thank you

[unspokensinz]

@phae83mora you can, but I don't suggest it. It's a bit thick and more sweetened. On the outside of the label should say "for cooking" Aroy-D has the best ones

[datruest]

@unspokensinz i like da song...can anyone hook me up with it? just send the link to my email. plx thanks.

[revoltx]

oh man, this looks delicious and easy. i might have to steal this recipe and make my own video haha

[TopNotchAznChick]

instead of water, i use the broth from boiling the chicken....but thats just me

[unspokensinz]

@TopNotchAznChick yea, the chicken broth adds flavor :)

[sbounmany]

@TopNotchAznChick i myself use the chicken broth too from the boiled chicken more flavor that way

[123laostar]

I love this drama song. Ur food looked very delicious.

[unspokensinz]

@123laostar Thank you dear!

[jennyhmongthao]

So I saw this video and made it earlier.It was my first time making kapoon and it went well.I am so proud of myself and I thank you for uploading this video.Some other stuff I added was those little black mushrooms and baby corn. Yum. Next time I will try the quail egg.

[unspokensinz]

@jennyhmongthao I'm glad you liked it and tried it! Now you can say you can make kapoon :) My grandma makes it with baby corn and mushrooms too, but no noodles it's called "Kieng" similar to kapoon.

[MegaIndieCat]

THANK YOU so much for posting this video with great instructions. I moved a thousand plus miles away from my mom to be with my white husband and I've been craving this for the longest time. Thank you.

[unspokensinz]

@MegaIndieCat being away from mom is always tough. Let me know how it goes.

[ILUVMAHBABIeZ]

Can dry bay leaves work? I couldnt find the fresh ones.

[unspokensinz]

@ILUVMAHBABIeZ dry ones work or lime leaves

[asiannnbitch]

MY MOM LISTEN TO THIS SONG ALL THE TIME!! ANYWAYS, LOVE THE RECIPE!

[unspokensinz]

@asiannnbitch :) ty

[jessechao4]

haha dey got everythin onyoutube. thanks for postin dis up tho. ill make sum later lol.

my family put quail eggs n it.....and rooster sauce aka sirachi sauce.

[unspokensinz]

@jessechao4 lol, YW and yea I don't like the texture of quail eggs its weird. I think it's a bit weird with the sriracha sauce. Does that make it spicier?

[nyabxais]

i know this song!!! i love this song!



[blondefreestylegal]

i love making khao poon it's my fave lao food

[unspokensinz]

@blondefreestylegal ;)

[mscinda100]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing. Loved the music. I've never had khao poon this way before. I wonder if our recipes vary because of the region we grew up in or that our parents grew up in. I know from experience that Lao recipes are passed down from parents to children. I grew up making khao poon with ground pork, a lot of lemon grass, galangal, kaffir lime leaf, etc. And it is garnished with cabbage, cilantro, bean sprouts, shredded carrots, and mint. Sometimes banana blossom.

[unspokensinz]

@mscinda100 ahh, yea I grew up making it with chicken and banana blossom too, but I'm not big on veggies. Thanks :)

[alrang]

@mscinda100 I grew up eating both fish and ground pork ones and my relatives like to intestines in it, but not me.

[thewordmemory]

I've been craving this since the day I knew I was pregnant :/ not having my mother around, I have nobody else and for someone who can't cook like me too. GOSH! But THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO, I can now do it myself :) I appreciated.

[unspokensinz]

@thewordmemory You are welcome :) and congrats on the pregnancy! I've been away from my mom for almost 8 years so decided to make my own.

[jennycha11]

i was wondering how cum u didnt use the liquid that u use to boil the chicken to make kapoon...lmk..

[unspokensinz]

@jennycha11 I wasn't thinking when I was cooking lol, but definately use the liquid that you boil the chicken in. It adds extra flavor.

[hedikomoon]

@unspokensinz Oh thank goodness for the clarification. I just feel so much better that when I try to make kao poon the first time, I'll be sure to remember to use the chicken broth. Thanks you guys!!!

[TheNkhaoone]

Have you ever tried it with quail eggs? Its actually pretty good

[unspokensinz]

@TheNkhaoone I have tried quail eggs, but it's not my cup of tea. It feels mushy and weird.

[unspokensinz]

@supermidasable LOL

[shroom807]

weres the green onion and cilantro and the cabbage lol

[unspokensinz]

@shroom807 That's optional. I don't like that I feel like an OG that way haha

[Irukandji80z]

sa baii jai day... both food and song are comforting. damn how much i miss my mom she always cook for me. i can never go hungry mom around. love to eat lab or goy too :-P <--- born in Laos but grow up in the US.

Hi Do you have the title of this song??

[unspokensinz]

@Sana978 Hi Sana. Please see the description box for the song title. Thanks!

[SwtnessOfNov]

I don't know what the song is about but I like it. =)

[unspokensinz]

@SwtnessOfNov I don't know what it's about either, but sounds nice right? lol

[SwtnessOfNov]

@unspokensinz =)

[MNTsunami]

I love Kow Poon! This is gonna sound weird but when I make mine, I don't use curry paste at all, but rather reducing coconut milk to half, then adding lots of chili oil and add to broth. I've seen your way done many times but I'm wondering if its the main method in Hmong households? Thanks for sharing! I'm Thai Isan.

[unspokensinz]

@MNTsunami I would assume so. This is how my mom makes it and I don't know how to make it any other way. I will have to try your way next time. Is that the way Thai Isan's make it?

[nrhiavkojxwb]

@MNTsunami I've seen Laotian and Khmer make it like this. I thought Thai's make it like this too. I think kaphoon has to include the curry part or else it's just noodles, not kaphoon. The video was great. Thanks!

[unspokensinz]

@nrhiavkojxwb :) thanks dear

[Hannah110690]

Thank you so much for the title of the song you are great!!

[unspokensinz]

@Hannah110690 you're welcome dear

[unspokensinz]

@Hannah110690 Thanks dear. I'm Hmong and 1/8th Lao :)

The title to this song is Title: Sao tor pa mhai : Maneemookda

สาวทอผ้าไหม : มณีมุกดา from Thai Lakorn OST: Pleng Pah Fah Lorm Dao/Pleng Pafa Lom Duang

[pyang264]

omg. I seriously ate a whole pot of khao poon when I made mines. Since my hubbie and kids don't like khao poon. I was craving as heck as I am pregnant too. I think I gain extra weight because of eating soo much. I love khao poon. won't mind making it again! This was a good video! I love your videos. so detailed. I still need to go out and buy those ingredients to make those crab wontons!!

[unspokensinz]

@pyang264 Congrats :) how far along are you? All the more Khao Pun for you right? lol Thanks dear you're always so sweet!
