Vietnamese Favourites (Australian Women's Weekly)

Vietnamese food is becoming as mainstream as Thai. Fresh salads garnished with peanuts, simple fish and meat dishes, fresh spring rolls - it's the sort of food we love to eat today - naturally low in fat, fresh and healthy.

There are a few ingredients that still have to be bought at speciality Asian food stores, but most of these keep for ages; the main ingredients in Vietnamese food can be bought at the supermarket.
