I've partnered with Impossible™ Beef Made From Plants to make delicious food that anyone will enjoy, whether they be omnivorous or plantbased! Today I'm recreating a famous Vietnamese dish, bún chả. Obama and Bourdain once ate this dish in Hanoi, and the restaurant, Bún chả Hương Liên, is often now referred to as Bún Chả Obama, which I think is delightful and hilarious.

Bún chả is said to be from the northern region (Hanoi), and is known for the Vietnamese classic trifecta: refreshing, savoury, and balanced! My take on this dish is a plantbased version, making it bún chả chay!
