Selected for Jamie Oliver's Cookbook Club
In Vietnamese, Uyen Luu demonstrates that Vietnamese food is just as easy to whip up as a bowl of pasta – all you need is a good bottle of fish sauce and a little enthusiasm!
Uyen shares over 85 of her tastiest recipes – some traditional, some with a modern twist – using ingredients that are available at your local supermarket.
Recipes include noodle soups, salads, family-style sharing plates, one-pot wonders and dinner-party showstoppers, which are all easy to prepare, adapt and enjoy. The recipes are impressive yet simple: try the Crispy Roast Pork Belly; Sea Bass in Tomato, Celery & Dill Broth; or Fried Noodles & Greens.
Vietnamese is filled with fuss-free, delicious recipes that are quick to prepare, and will have you eating Vietnamese meals on a regular basis.
Uyen Luu is a food photographer and food stylist by day, and her work has been widely covered by mainstream press. She has been running a Vietnamese supper club since 2009, and also runs cooking classes. Uyen grew up in Hackney, London since her family moved there in the 80s as refugees. This is her second book.
