The supper club is held in my home in London Fields, Hackney. It is like a dinner party in the tradition of a Vietnamese feast with homemade Vietnamese food.
Vietnamese food is about the balance of flavours, of sweet, salty and sour – there is no measuring device that can ever match your own taste buds.
Quick, easy, healthy and utterly delicious. This fast and soothing recipe is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Kale can be substituted with any greens such as cabbage and likewise with the herbs. I do love this combination, when dill is cooked, it is transformed completely and becomes totally addictive. Kale and dill have major health benefits: its full of anti-oxidants, rich in vitamins A, C, K and minerals such as calcium and iron. Ginger boasts many health benefits such as absorption of vitamins and minerals and aids digestion.
It can be vegetarian too without the pork floss. You can substitute fish sauce for salt or soy sauce.
