HA TIEN HUB CAKE

Also known as wheel hub cake. The cake crust is like steamed thin rice pancake but thicker and chewier. The stuffing is sliced cassava, shredded dried shrimp and chopped green onion. When the rice paper is ready, we put on top the cassava stir fried with bean sprouts, some chopped pork mixed with minced shrimps. Steamed rice cakeare served with sweet sour fish sauce added some minced chili and garlic. A bite into this cake of chewycrust, cassava sweetness, and delicious dried shrimps will leave dinners with an everlasting thought. It is said that this dish originated from Cambodia, which might be true because the two regions are next to each other.
