A delicious dish for cold days in Vietnam, pillow cake attracts diners at first sight by its cute little pillow shape and colorful sauce. Like most cakes in Vietnam, pillow cake is not baked but deep-fried to create a golden, crispy and fragrant crust.
First, water and rice flour are mixed in perfect proportions, forming a soft and moist dough. Next, vermicelli, wood ear, kohlrabi, shiitake mushrooms are all preliminarily processed and finely chopped, mixed with minced pork and spices; This is an easy recipe for filling. More interesting with the design task: put the filling in the middle of the round cake, fold the leather into a half circle and then skillfully glue the edges together to create a pillow pattern.
