Banh Gio (Steamed Triangular Rice Dumplings): Banh gio (steamed minced pork rice dumpling) is a pyramidal shaped snack food of my childhood. Just like banh pate so, my mom would make dozens of these for my siblings and I to eat for breakfast and as after school snacks. Banh gio is a very simple and inexpensive dish, which is why she made this often and is made with rice flour, sauteed minced pork, onions and wood ear mushrooms. Mom worked hard and never rewarded herself with any fancy dining, clothing, or jewelry while we were growing up–in fact, we almost never ate in restaurants–but she always rewarded us with delicious simple and satisfying foods, and this starchy snack fits the bill.
Common as street food for breakfast in Vietnam, banh gio is a very portable snack and can be eaten on the go, although some do eat this with either fish sauce or maggi seasoning. If the dough and pork filling is properly seasoned, we enjoy the banh gio simply by itself.
Mom mixes her own flour, a combination of rice flour and corn starch or you can buy a packaged flour like above, found in most Asian groceries. The dough is first precooked and then wrapped with the pork filling in banana leaf and then finally steamed.
