This Pork and Prawn Salad is a refreshing, filling and delicious dish that really highlights South East Asian cuisine. The use of two proteins, pork for fat and prawn for sweetness come together to create the OG ‘surf and turf’ flavour pairing, the salad has all different kinds of wonderful crunchy textures and finally the dressing is the iconic flours of salty, sour, sweet & spicy. It’s all about the marriage of flavours that come together to create something balanced, harmonious and delicious!
Traditionally this salad is served with fried prawn crackers, however I’ve opted for a favourite, Vietnamese black sesame rice cracker which is an easier and healthier option to make at home. Rather than frying in oil, I’ve learnt to just microwave it for 1 minute and it will puff up into an edible bowl that you can then serve the salad in.
This is my family recipe for ‘Bánh Xèo’ or Vietnamese Sizzling Crepes. It's a Southern Vietnamese dish, which is essentially a fresh and crispy savoury crepe best enjoyed wrapped in lettuce and herbs and dipped in Nuoc Cham, a Vietnamese Dipping Sauce. It’s the perfect spring and spritzy dish!
