This beautifully illustrated cookbook takes the reader into the world of the Vietnamese in Australia, capturing all the energy, excitement, and colour we have come to associate with shops and restaurants in places such as Footscray in Victoria and Cabramatta in NSW. Learn how to throw together a tasty noodle dinner, or perfect the art of the full Vietnamese banquet. All the favourites are here, such as Beef Noodle Soup (pho), Rice Paper Rolls and Chicken with Lemongrass and Chilli as well some more exotic dishes. Based on readily available ingredients, the recipes will delight the home cook, while Nhut`s personal story will inspire all of us to take a longer look at an emerging region and it`s rich cultural and culinary traditions.
