Vietnamese by Uyen Luu

Sweet, sour and salty: this is the holy trinity of Vietnamese cooking, as elucidated in the cookbook Vietnamese by Uyen Luu. Featuring 85 recipes from Luu’s own family and kitchen, this vibrant tome is an ode to the tasty and moreish Vietnamese cuisine. It includes simple work-from- home lunches to hearty dinners of caramelized pork belly with coconut milk and kale, as well as classic Vietnamese dishes such as beef pho, rice paper rolls and a zingy, herby banh mi sandwich. Every recipe is easy to follow and produces a showstopping final dish to be shared with family and friends – or savored solo.
