Vietnamese-Style Vermicelli Bowls

Vietnamese-style vermicelli bowls are a popular and delicious dish that is often served as a main course. They usually consist of a bed of rice vermicelli noodles topped with various fresh vegetables, herbs, and proteins. These dishes are typically served with a sweet, sour, and spicy sauce, such as Nuoc Cham, which is made from fish sauce, sugar, and lime juice. These bowls can be customized to fit any taste and are a great way to enjoy a light, healthy, and flavorful meal.
