About Vietnamese meatloaf

Vietnamese Meatloaf, or "Chả Trứng Hấp," is a flavorful dish from Vietnamese cuisine typically enjoyed as part of a hearty meal or alongside rice dishes. This steamed meatloaf combines ground pork or chicken, eggs, wood ear mushrooms, and glass noodles, all seasoned with fish sauce, garlic, and scallions for a savory, umami-packed profile. The use of steaming instead of baking or frying makes it lighter in fat content compared to Western-style meatloaf. Eggs contribute protein, while mushrooms add dietary fiber and essential nutrients. However, the dish's sodium content may be high due to fish sauce, so it’s best consumed in moderation if watching salt intake. A colorful egg yolk topping, often featured, enhances presentation and nutritional value. Vietnamese Meatloaf offers a balanced mix of proteins, minerals, and comforting flavors, embodying the culinary vibrancy of Vietnam.
