It's perfect for hot summer nights! This Vietnamese noodle salad bowl gets its substance from a bit of thinly sliced pork shoulder. If you want to jazz it up think bun this. This Vietnamese noodle bowl recipe is made with all of the classics — thin rice vermicelli noodles, your choice of protein, fresh veggies piled high, lots of fresh herbs, and everyone's favorite nước chấm (Vietnamese dipping sauce).
Instructions to make Vietnamese Noodle salad/bowl:
- Prep the protein
- Pork is a normal meat for this, but chicken, beef, lamb works well. I am trying tofu next time.
- Cut your protein into bite size pieces of your choosing.
- Add lemon grass, this is what I use, since actual lemon grass is not easily available. If you can't find it, leave it out. It will still taste great.
- Add the rest of the meat ingredients, mix well. Cover and let set 30 minutes to an hour.
- Prep the sauce
- If you are using a hot chili, thinly slice.
- Mix all sauce ingredients, set aside.
- Get the cooking steps done
- If you have any that require blanching, do that now, cool immediately. Use water for noodles if using noodles.
- Prepare noodles per package directions, to el dente.
- Drain noodles, wash to cool down, mix a tiny bit of oil in to stop it from sticking, set aside
- Now would be a good time to assemble your spring rolls, this is how I did it 😉
- Cook pork in a skillet/wok/stir-fry
- Set aside to cool
- Cook spring rolls, set aside to cool, I used my air fryer for this
- Assemble
- Julian cucumber, carrot and any other veggies that require it.
- Clean some lettuce (green leaf here, it seems to work the best, really) and place the leafy parts in your bowls.
- Cut your spring rolls, I found the least crumble way is to put the point of the knife in, then cut down. Finish the cut. You still crumble a little, but not as much as just slamming through it.
- Put your noodles or rice in the center of the lettuce. Place all the other things around, pretty easy.
- Pour the sauce in to your liking, mix it all up.
- Veggies; cucumber and carrots seem to always be in this. I used sugar snap peas here, asparagus, avacados, spinach (wilted) just some more options. Thin sliced red onion, green onion, many options to choose from.
