Authentic home cooking from Vietnam, with US measurements. 
Seafood Bánh Xèo 🦞 🦑
Bánh Xèo has the same name, but every region makes it differently—from the batter to the filling. I make it to suit my family's taste: the center is soft, and the edges are crispy. The shrimp and squid are flavorful and perfect for dipping in sweet and tangy fish sauce. This dish goes well with many types of fresh greens, so it's a pretty healthy option!
