Bun Cha Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Bun cha is a traditional Vietnamese dish of pork and rice noodles. It is believed that the dish originated in Hanoi in Vietnam. Different versions of bun cha can be found around Vietnam, but the version from Hanoi is the most prized. In 1959, Vietnamese food writer Vu Bang wrote about Hanoi as a town “transfixed by bun cha”. ‘Bun’ translates to fresh white rice vermicelli, and ‘cha’ means pork belly or meatballs grilled over charcoal. Bun cha garnered international fame when food writer and TV show presenter Anthony Bourdain enjoyed the dish with former US president Barack Obama at Bún Chả Hương Liên restaurant in Hanoi. The history and origin of bun cha remain unknown but it is a symbol of Hanoi’s food culture nonetheless. Sold all day now, the dish is traditionally eaten at noon and usually served with fresh herbs like coriander and mint.
