Bánh xèo (Vietnamese: [ɓǎjŋ̟ sɛ̂w], lit. ’sizzling pancake’) is a crispy, stuffed rice pancake popular in Vietnam.[1] The name refers to the sound (from xèo – ‘sizzling’) a thin layer of rice batter makes when it is poured into the hot skillet.[2][3] It is a savoury fried pancake made of rice flour, water, and turmeric powder. It can also be called a Vietnamese crêpe.[4][5] Some common stuffings include pork, prawns, diced green onion, mung bean, and bean sprouts. Bánh xèo served with sides. Usually, some commonly added ingredients include leafy greens like lettuces or perilla leaves, other herbs as flavor enhancers like mint leaves and Thai basil,[6][7] cucumbers, and pickled vegetables, usually carrots and radishes. Lastly, its dipping sauce is Nước chấm (sweet and sour garlic fish sauce). Elements of each side and sauce add to the fresh-tasting fried Bánh Xèo.[8]

The dish is also popular in Cambodian cuisine,[9] where the dish is called banh chao (Khmer: បាញ់ឆែវ [ɓaɲ cʰaew]).[10] Cambodian banh chhev are more similar to the southern Vietnamese style of bánh xèo rather than to the style present in Central Vietnam.
There is also a Thai version of bánh xèo called Khanom bueang Yuan (Thai: ขนมเบื้องญวน). It is offered by some street vendors and is available at many Bangkok restaurants serving Thai or royal cuisine. The most common filling in Thailand is a minced mixture of shredded coconut, roasted peanuts, shrimp, salted radish and fried tofu and served with bean sprouts and sweet cucumber relish.
History[edit]
Bánh Xèo is a traditional street food in Vietnam. The working class mainly ate it because it was cheap and easy. [ 11 ] Its origins are unknown. However, Vietnamese people agreed that the creation of this dish could be somewhere in Central Vietnam through the fusion of French culture from the French colonial times or South Vietnam by migrating immigrants moving into Vietnam and mixing with the surrounding culture. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] Others believe Bánh Xèo came from mixing Cham culture and Vietnamese cuisine. [ 14 ]Through the years, Bánh Xèo has expanded to other nearby Southeast Asian countries like Cambodia and Thailand. Bánh Xèo is not a dish that’s fading into existence. Instead, it has become more popular as more affluent people started to realize its savory taste and new restaurants opening up like “ Banh Xeo Muoi Xiem and An La Ghien, ” stated Saigoneers in năm nay. [ 15 ]On the 2 nd and 16 th of each lunar month, some Vietnamese people would substitute rice for Bánh Xèo. [ 16 ]
Variations[edit]
Because of the nature of Bánh Xèo, the do-it-yourself style, there are no restrictions or limitations. However there are two distinct variations that are known :
Bánh Xèo: Miền Trung
- Miền Trung (Central Vietnam) style Bánh Xèo tends to be smaller, about the size of a hand. Compared to the Miền Tây, the Miền Trung version has few fillings. Fillings include prawns, thin slices of pork, and bean sprouts.[17] As well as being darker or not as yellow as other variations because of the addition of fermented shrimp paste, adding a distinct taste and color to the dish.

- Miền Tây (Mekong Delta) style Bánh Xèo tends to be larger than the Miền Trung version, usually about the size of a small to medium size pizza, about 12-inch diameter. However, they are generally thinner. Miền Tây offers a more diverse range of ingredients and fillings. Because of this, the color of the Bánh Xèo is usually brighter as the batter with turmeric and coconut milk creates a colorful yellow dish. Fillings include prawns, pork belly, green onions, fried onions, and bean sprouts.[18] There tends to be more filling in the Miền Tây version as there is more growth in the south than north of Vietnam.
