Vietnamese Cabbage

Fri, 02 Nov 2001 16:36:19 -0500

A little unusual but easy side dish to prepare. Chinese cabbage can be used as well as ordinary cabbage. Some tabasco or red pepper flakes could spice it up quite nicely if desired. -- posted by Tebo

Tue, 16 Apr 2002 13:02:57 -0400

These have a great char-grilled flavor and are perfect for summertime and outdoor cooking. A perfect accompaniment would be Cambodian grilled corn (see recipe on Zaar). -- posted by Sue L

Vietnamese Spring Rolls

Wed, 17 Jul 2002 22:50:16 -0400

These spring rolls, served with dipping sauce are a favorite at our house. While they are a little tedious to make, the recipe makes about 20, so they can be frozen and then just thawed the next time. Cook time is approximate, it will depend on how many you make, and whether you need to do them in batches. -- posted by canarygirl

Green papaya salad

Mon, 19 Aug 2002 18:06:36 -0400

Goui/noam - Vietnamese salads 'Goui' is any shredded vegetable served raw with mint and basil or coriander plus many of the wild herbs which are not available here in the U.S. Here Green Papaya is generaly the vegetable of choice. On the top of the dish there is cooked meat, shrimp or beef jerky. Fish sauce dip is used as dressing for the dish. You can make 'goui' with any kind of vegetables as long as you shred, wash and drain them dry before adding any dressing to it. You can use shrimp crackers to serve with the salads. -- posted by 1Steve

Leftover Roast Beef Spicy Salad

Wed, 08 Jan 2003 20:16:12 -0500

Had way too much of roast beef one time, and whipped this salad up to make up for the amount of meat I had consumed, and the lack of vegetables in a diet. It worked so well, I have started making extra roast beef, just so that I could have heaps of leftovers for this wonderful salad. -- posted by KitchenManiac

Vietnamese Meatballs

Tue, 02 Sep 2003 20:05:38 -0400

We made a delicious meal of these, Chinese eggrolls, Thai corn fritters, and nuoc cham dipping sauce. I found variations of this recipe on the web, but adjusted the amounts for the best flavor. These can also be grilled. -- posted by Picholine

Vietnamese-Style Spicy Fried Rice

Tue, 02 Dec 2003 20:00:44 -0500

Spicy and flavorful, this easy dish provides a delicious change from Nasi Goreng or Chinese Fried Rice. Try to use Vietnamese fish sauce (Nuoc Mam), which is more pungent than other Southeast Asian fish sauces. Preparation time does not include the time needed to dry the rice overnight. -- posted by Daydream

Old Quarter Crab Spring Rolls

Wed, 20 Jun 2007 21:23:09 -0400

These unusual Vietnamese spring rolls are a breath of fresh air after all those Chinese takeaways ! They're fun to make and great as an appetizer, snack or main dish - the servings are for a main dish. I got this recipe when I went on a cooking course in Hanoi and this was one of four dishes I made. Some of the ingredients are a bit out-of-the-ordinary but I promise you, its worth it ! Make sure all th filling ingredients are chopped small enough - the filling should have a precooked-patty-like consistency. -- posted by NOOBchef

Com Sot Ca Chua - Vietnamese Tomato Rice

Tue, 10 Jul 2007 23:57:19 -0400

I got this recipe from my Husband's family. It's an easy way to jazz up the usual rice. Cook time is estimated, and doesn't take cooking the rice into consideration. -- posted by Kiersten Phae

Zucchini (Mock Green Papaya) Salad

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 11:37:33 -0400

Always searching for a new way to use zucchini. I love thai green papaya salad so I substituted zucchini for the green papaya. This can also be topped with boiled shrimp or chicken breast. I adapted this recipe from one I found at: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/10520 -- posted by Herb Lady

Cabbage Omelet

Thu, 31 Jan 2008 01:32:35 -0500

I am of Vietnamese descent, but my language skills are dismal. This is a Vietnamese dish that we used to eat at dinner, I cannot recall the name so I made up a name for it. My kids love this dish. -- posted by Nado2003

Vietnamese Rice Noodle Salad

Sun, 03 Feb 2008 14:09:54 -0500

We made this dish by Bobby Flay to go with a crispy, grilled duck we're doing on the BGE tonight. We started out with a big bowl of steaming, salted edamame and a chilled Sauvignon Blanc. Note: to this we added a chopped green onion, Thai chili sauce, and rice wine vinegar just to finish it off. Great warm weather food! -- posted by Trinkets

Hau's Vietnamese Spring Rolls

Sat, 23 Feb 2008 02:49:01 -0500

My friend and coworker used to bring these spring rolls to potluck lunches where they were inhaled by everyone. They are so delicious! The number of egg rolls this recipe makes is an estimate. The preparation and frying times depend on how quickly you can make the spring rolls and how many you're frying at that time. The spring rolls can be made ahead of time, frozen and cooked when you need them. -- posted by Dreamer in Ontario

Vietnamese Shrimp and Crab Crispy Spring Rolls (Cha Gio)

Fri, 22 May 2009 11:50:54 -0400

Stashing for when we are looking beyond classic Maryland-style steamed crabs or wonderful crab cakes - that'll be quite a bit later in summer LOL. Received this recipe in am email from gourmet-recipes-from-around-the-world. The poster, ifourc, notes pork and shrimp cha gio can be made by using 1 pound ground pork and 1/2 pound shrimp. 1-1 1/2 ounces of thin cellophane noodles, chopped into 1/2" pieces and soaked in water until soft, is a common ingredient and can also be added to the mixture. -- posted by Buster's friend
