Vietnamese Vermicelli Bundles with Marinated Soy Curls – Vegan Bánh Hỏi Thịt Nướng Chay
Bánh Hỏi Thịt Nướng Chay is a veganized dish of my childhood; vegan bánh hỏi is made with rice vermicelli bundles (held together with starch), topped with a green onion oil, and served with a dipping sauce and a savoury grilled marinated meat, which I’ve replaced with marinated soy curls!
