Bò Kho (Vietnamese Beef Stew)

Bò Kho (Vietnamese Beef Stew) is a rich and hearty dish made with tender chunks of beef slowly braised in a fragrant broth infused with lemongrass, star anise, garlic, and chili. The stew is deeply savory with a hint of sweetness and spice, often featuring carrots and sometimes daikon for added texture and flavor. Bò Kho is commonly served with a warm, crusty baguette for dipping, or over rice noodles for a more filling meal. It's a comforting, aromatic dish that showcases the fusion of French and Vietnamese culinary influences.
