Bánh Xèo
Bánh xèo is a type of savory pancake made fresh to order – it’s hot, crispy, and totally addictive. The batter is made of coconut milk and rice flour, then customizable toppings are thrown on as the batter hits the hot pan. Common inclusions are pork, shrimp, and tons of bean sprouts.
Once it’s cooked, bánh xèo is served with a plate of lettuce and herbs, so you can add some crunch to each bite. It’s like a giant, delicious spring roll.
