Rice noodle roll with fried dough (炸两)


Rice noodle roll can be stuffed with dried shrimp, BBQ pork, ground beef, large prawns, and fried dough. Rice noodle roll (腸粉) with fried dough (油條), or in chinese "ZhaLiang" (炸两) is my absolute favorite. It usually come wtih sweet soy sauce, sesame paste, and hoisin sauce as dipping sauce.
