Thịt Kho is classic Vietnamese comfort food, not often found in restaurants but always in the home. The effect of slow cooking cut-up pieces of pork belly in caramelized sugar mixed with nước mắm (fish sauce) and shallots is unbearably delicious. Throw in a hard boiled egg, add a side dish of nộm (cabbage salad) for contrast and you have yourself one wonderful meal.

You eat it with rice, too, right? Because it's almost too savory without rice!
I just discovered your blog, which makes me very hungry. Too bad I don't live in NYC :(
My favorite Chinese restaurant has a similar dish to this one that I really love. But I want to try this one! Do you have a recipe that you could post!?
