Banh xeo is Vietnamese and literally means "sizzling pancake". Xeo refers to the sizzle that is produced when the pancake batter is poured into the pan and comes into contact with the hot oil. The pancake is made from rice flour, water, coconut milk and turmeric. Banh xeo is a typical Vietnamese street food that can be found throughout Vietnam. It comes in different forms with a variety of fillings and is easy to make at home, too. Wrapped in fresh lettuce leaves with herbs, it makes an incredibly refreshing dish.
