Vietnamese Crispy Pancakes with Thai Ajard dipping sauce, Can be vegetarian too!

With credit to Yui Miles.....These pancakes are so delicious, they are so crispy. Perfect for anyone gluten intolerance because they are made with rice flour and creamy coconut milk.
I hold my hands up right now, this is not my recipe, its Yui Miles recipe to be honest. Yui and I were on Channel 4’s Beat the Chef TV Cooking show, where, Yes we both did beat our Chefs, significantly (quote from Andi Oliver, Host). So after becoming IG friends we met up and went for a lovely meal at Bambu, a Vietnamese restaurant in Colchester. We had this as part of our delicious meal we shared.
Subsequently, I loved it so much, I asked Yui to teach me the recipe, which she did via a Live Instagram Cook.
So I am recreating this recipe for a reason. Its Chinese New Year on Saturday, or Luna New Year. I am going into BBC Radio Derby to cook for them live to talk about this recipe and also my Haggis bites, because it is also Burns Night in the UK on Saturday too. (He’s a esteemed Poet from Scotland, from the 1800’s, where traditional recipes are cooked in honour to celebrate him).
This recipe can easily be adapted for vegetarians and vegans, in fact I will be making a version with Chestnut mushrooms, and the rest of the other ingredients too!
Sorry for the Long story. A big thank you to my lovely Yui Miles for all her inspiration, caring, and many laughs too!

Now place in a bowl, boil the kettle and add the few tablespoons of boiling water, making sure all the sugar is dissolved, add the salt and mix too. If you want you can heat this up in a pan. But add the cucumber at the end once the mixture has cooled.

Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Dipping Sauce Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Dipping Sauce
You can call these salad rolls, fresh spring rolls, Vietnamese spring rolls, or whatever you like! I just want to share my special Vietnamese dipping sauce recipe, a family secret from my mother. It goes perfectly with fresh vegetables. This version doesn’t use lime or vinegar, making it great for older adults who may have joint pain from those ingredients. My mother-in-law has gout, so I adapted the recipe so she can enjoy it too. ChollYTranslated from Cookpad Thailand -

Fried Pickles with honey mustard dipping sauce Fried Pickles with honey mustard dipping sauce
#deepfried#indvswi#indvswDeep fried pickles are an addictive finger food perfect for any get together you’re hosting whether it’s game night, movie night or cocktails with friends. If you’ve never tried deep fried pickles, it’s time to try these out for yourself.They probably do sound a little odd to those of you that have never thought of frying a pickle and I’ll admit that I was skeptical at first too. But let me tell you with their crispy, salty outside and tangy inside these little devils are down right addictive and would vanish from the plate in seconds.Note- A 'pickle' as is called in USA and Canada, is a cucumber that had been pickled in brine, vinegar, or other solutions and left to ferment for a period of time. In this recipe, I have used Dill pickles. Shuchi Jain -
