Lemongrass Beef Banh Mi / Bánh Mì Thịt Bò Xào
Bánh mì thịt bò xào (stir fried) or bánh mì thịt nướng (grilled)? Essentially the two are nearly identical, as the only difference is the cooking preparation. If you took this marinated beef from this recipe, put it on a skewer and grilled it, you could 100% call it bánh mì thịt nướng. With that
