I made bánh xèo for the first time last night with bánh xèo mix I picked up in the Vietnamese grocery and fillings were shrimp, pork belly, and then topped off with bean sprouts, wrapped in lettuce. Came out really good, and will try again tonight using your bánh xèo recipe. Bánh mì, phở, bánh xèo, and cánh gà chiên nước mắm are my favorites. I am heading back to Vietnam soon, and they will be the high on the list as first things to eat.
I prefer it wrapped in rice paper, but I have tried it with lettuce as well. I managed to buy some Bahn Xeo dry prepared mix in a Asian Grocery store, it's a product from Vietnam, so I can't wait to try it out. It says to add coconut milk and water.
So, you just wanted to be a butt-cracker? Next time try using punctuation. Have you thought about not criticizing someone for trying to share other cultures cuisine? Be a better person.
I agree and I'm not Vietnamese. I hope people follow a more authentic recipe as this way might not be as enjoyable and people will miss out on the incredible taste.
Thank you for the recipe. I've just made the crepe. The only problem I had was with separating it from the pan. The first one went to garbage, the second one I managed to remove in several pieces. I used a similar amount of oil as for regular crepes but I think this one needs more. Could you recommend how much oil to use for 1 crepe? Thanks
Hi! Sorry for the delayed response but I would recommend experimenting with the oil. I usually start with a couple tablespoons and go up from there as needed
Hi, yes only rice flour will work here to give it the proper texture. You’ll end up with a more bread or regular crepe if you use wheat flour. Rice flour makes it more light and crisp
I hope I can make this one day. btw - My cousin told me folks are now able to apply for permits to sell goods from residential kitchens. Just passing on info., No pressure, but I would be happy if you decide to sell anything you've posted.
Awesome! I hope you love it as much as I do! It’s always been my mission to inspire and teach people a few skills here and there when it comes to cooking. It makes me happy to see people learning and growing. I can probably see myself writing a cookbook one day maybe, but selling baked goods would also be pretty cool! Thanks for your support Stephanie! ❤️
