No photo - it cooks so quickly and needs to be served whilst still hot.
Then it was eaten quickly.

I loved it.
Really loved it.
Sadly, the 'rents' responses were muted.
Dads rarely compliments my cooking. Thank you is his standard.
Mum said, "Well it's nice as a change."

NOOOOOOO.
It was double-plus-good!

Fed the three of us easily, despite being touted as a meal for two.
So I can't see myself making it again, sadly (too much for one lonely person).

Maybe your mom is not used to the Asian flavor, and that comment of hers is a compliment. Do you realize "ga kho gung" are Vietnamese words?
