“Bánh rán” is a delicious
finger food for breakfast in Vietnam.
There are two main kinds of bánh rán, namely
salty cake and sweet one with the latter being much more common than the
former. While the filling of sweet cake is sweet mashed mung bean, that of
salty cake is quite similar to pillow cake‘s, a mixture of minced meat, prawn,
glass noodle, veggie and etc. What is more, among different types of sweet
cake, the cake coated with sesame seeds is the best choice due to its moderate
sweet taste, crispy cover and subtle fragrant.
The dough is a blend of
glutinous rice flour, rice flour, mashed potato and sugar. Mashed mung bean
filling is rolled into ball shape, wrapped inside the dough and then rolled
over a plate of sesame to make its sesame coat. After deep-fried, the cake is
getting golden brown, crispy and aromatic.
Hiding under that crispy
cover is the sweet and nutty flavor of potato, rice, and mung bean.
So relish it and discover
how tasty it is!
