stir fry

Bitter melon is a common vegetable used in Vietnamese cuisine for a variety of dishes, including soups and stir fry recipes. This bitter melon recipe is stir-fried with eggs, shrimp, and bean thread noodles.

Vietnamese seafood stir fry noodles are my quick and easy go-to when there’s “nothing to eat.” Just some seafood, choy sum, and Top Ramen noodles from Costco.

Vietnamese fish sauce chicken wings are commonly fried and then marinated in fish sauce and are the equivalent and combination of American’s BBQ and honey glazed chicken. The main player in this dish isn’t the chicken but actually is the fish sauce.

Noodles of all kinds are actually one of the most common breakfasts in Viet Nam. Noodles are light enough to digest early in the morning, but also full enough to keep you going until lunch.
