Our favorite neighborhood restaurant is Nha Trang, a Vietnamese restaurant introduced to me by a dear Vietnamese friend. Most of the customers are Vietnamese and the menu is long and diverse. But, I always tend to go back to the same dish, a salad that is topped with spring rolls or caramelized pork, or a combination of the two.
We often make fresh spring rolls at home but was inspired to trying to recreate the salad at home the other day. And, were surprised at the success.
The recipe came from Corrine Trang's Authentic Vietnamese Cooking - a great resource for many Vietnamese dishes.
