Chả Gà Chiên - Vietnamese Fried Chicken Roll

Chả Gà Chiên is a variation of Chả Lụa, a style of uncured pork sausage in Vietnamese cuisine that is traditionally wrapped in banana leaves and steamed. This variation of Chả Lụa is made with chicken instead of pork, giving it a leaner profile with a softer texture and is not wrapped in banana leaves but is flash fried to achieve a golden exterior. It is a very versatile ingredient used in a wide range of dishes like Vietnamese rice rolls (bánh cuốn), Vietnamese sub sandwiches (bánh mì) and Vietnamese sticky rice (xôi).
