HOW TO MAKE BANH XEO | VIETNAMESE SIZZLING CREPES

Bánh Xèo is a savory crepe made of a coconut and turmeric batter, traditionally filled with savory pork, shrimp, and beansprouts. It's served with fragrant herbs, crisp veggies, and sweet fish sauce called Nước Chấm. Each bite fills your mouth with an incredible combination of aromatics, textures, flavors, surely to bring you back for more bites. Bánh loosely refers to cake (or things made of starches and flours) and Xèo refers to the sizzling noise that the batter makes when hitting the hot pan. I used to eat this dish quite a bit with Vietnamese and Cambodian families. While this is a Vietnamese dish, Cambodians have adapted a yummy version of this as well, that's very similar. My recipe is my adaptation, a fusion of both styles, while staying very close to the authentic dish. 📸 INSTAGRAM: ThunThunChannel ○   / thunthunchannel   ________________________________________________________________________________________ INGREDIENTS Filling (see video for technique) Garlic - 10 cloves (minced, for Pork & Shrimp) Scallion - 6 stalks (green part chopped for batter, white part minced for Pork & Shrimp) Ground Pork - 1.5 lb Pork Belly - 1/2 lb Vegetable Oil - 1 tbsp Garlic - 2/3 portion that was minced White part of Scallion - 2/3 portion that was minced Fish Sauce - 1 tbsp Sugar - 1 tbsp Black Pepper - 1/2 tbsp Shrimp - 1 lb (peeled, halved) Vegetable Oil - 1/2 tbsp oil Garlic - 1/3 portion that was minced White part of Scallion - 1/3 portion that was minced Fish Sauce - 1 tsp Sugar - 1/2 tsp Black Pepper - 1/2 tsp Bean Sprouts - 12 oz bag Batter (see video for tips) Rice Flour - 2 cups Corn Starch - 3 tbsp (adjust to preference, the more you use, the more doughy) Turmeric - 1/2 tbsp Salt - 1/2 tbsp MSG - 1/2 tsp Water - 1 cup Coconut milk - 3/4 cup Seltzer Water - 1/2 cup Green part of Scallion - all Sweet Fish Sauce Dip Sugar - 1/3 cup Hot Water - 1/3 cup Fish Sauce - 1/3 cup Lime Juice - 1/8 cup Vinegar - 1/8 cup Garlic - 5 cloves Bird’s Eye Chilis - 6 chilis Grounded Roasted Peanuts - 2.5 tbsp Toppings Mint Thai Basil Vietnamese Coriander Fish Mint Lettuce Sour Green Mango Cucumber Rice Paper Wrapper (optional) ________________________________________________________________________________________ 🎬 OTHER VIDEOS TO WATCH ○ SUGARCANE SHRIMP -    • HOW TO MAKE SUGARCANE SHRIMP Chạo tôm   ○ GLASS NOODLE SALAD -    • ASIAN GLASS NOODLE SALAD WITH MIXED VEGGIE...   ○ ASIAN GARDEN HERB IN JULY -    • ASIAN HERB GARDEN TOUR   🎵 WHERE I FIND MY MUSIC ○ https://www.epidemicsound.com/referra...
