Special Steamed Rice Rolls with Pork Sausage + Fried Pork Roll

Banh cuon is made from thin, steamed rice-flour crepes rolled around a filling of minced pork and wood ear mushrooms, served with pork sausage (cha lua) and crispy fried pork patties (cha chien), topped with fried shallots and fresh herbs. The dish has a light, subtle flavor and a rich, fatty taste, dipped with sweet and sour fish sauce diluted with water, not spicy unless fresh chili or chili paste is added according to taste. Commonly served as a breakfast dish or light snack, best enjoyed while still warm to appreciate the soft and smooth texture of the cake.
