Hello teacher,
Today, I’m going to talk about my favorite dish. It’s called
“Banh Xeo”. Banh Xeo is a common dish in southern Vietnam.
It’s a pan cake with a thin, golden crust and some pieces of pork
and shrimp inside. The outer shell of the cake is usually made
from rice flour. People call banh xeo according to the sound
made during the frying process. Banh Xeo is usually eaten with
raw vegetables, bean sprouts, lettuce, cucumber, and fish sauce.
I really love its taste and smell. When cutting the cake, you will
smell the aroma of the cake mixed with the smell of banana
leaves, accompanied by the sound of the cake crust. Its flavor is
created by the flavors of the ingredients inside.
However, banh xeo contains a lot of starch and fat. If you eat too
much or too often, it will contribute to your weight gain. That's
not good for your health.
So to answer the question of which is more important, nutrition
or taste? I think both of them are important and must be
balanced. However, if I had to choose, I would still prefer the
taste, because a delicious dish will make you feel more
comfortable.
