Sharing with reporters, Van Minh affirmed that each meal tray is made by his own hands, from the preparation of ingredients, processing, cooking to presentation. Minh was very happy and surprised when his home-cooked meals received a lot of attention.
The trays of food are beautifully arranged.
Van Minh confided that when he was young, his father worked far away from home and only came home once a year during Tet. Only then did he get to have a family reunion meal. Throughout his growing up years, a home-cooked meal was always something precious to him.
“Gradually, I formed the habit of eating at home even though I lived alone,” Minh shared.
Minh is a construction engineer, and there was a time when he ate out more than home. He always felt that eating out could not bring the special flavor and warmth of home-cooked meals. Later, when he moved to live near the company, Minh cooked for himself.
Every weekend, Van Minh spends time going to the market to buy enough food for the whole week. The cost of buying food is about 400 – 500 thousand VND/week. As for vegetables, he buys them whenever it is convenient because they are easy to find in Da Lat.
“I love drinking juice, so I always have vegetables and fruits in my fridge. I clean the meat and fish I buy, divide them into small boxes to cook one dish. When I need to cook something, I take the box out to defrost it, very convenient,” Minh shared.
Each tray of rice has enough salty dishes, soup, and vegetables.
Every noon, Minh usually goes home to cook rice. It takes him about 45-60 minutes to prepare a sumptuous meal like the one in the photo series. In the evening, he usually cooks light dishes like pho, hu tieu, fried rice, etc.
“I work out so I eat a lot. I usually finish a meal like the one above in one meal and rarely leave leftovers for the next meal,” Minh said.
Minh’s job is stressful and pressured. For him, cooking is a way to relieve that pressure.
“Everyone chooses their own way of entertaining themselves, and I choose to cook. One day I craved something sweet, so I cooked a huge pot of sweet rice balls, but only kept a portion and gave the rest to my neighbors. It was as simple as that, but it made me happy all day.”
Van Minh puts his heart into every meal he cooks.
Van Minh learned to cook from his brother when they lived together as students. For some difficult dishes, he looked up recipes online. Otherwise, he cooked by instinct.
Sharing a series of home-cooked meals on social networks, Van Minh hopes to help families have more suggestions for daily meals.
“I am very happy to be warmly welcomed by everyone. I hope these meals will spread a positive message about home-cooked meals and help young people better understand family bonds,” Van Minh shared.
