This episode is actually quite special as my mum and sister Jenny appears on Cooking with Culture for Vietnamese food! I might be a bit biased in saying my mum is a great cook but food is a big part of our culture! We as a family regularly catch up and celebrate special occasions with a huge feast and this episode is no exception!
My parents were immigrants fleeing the Vietnam War, we don't talked about it often but they risked their lives to flee a war torn country to provide us a better life for which I am grateful for. Hear my mums harrowing story and learn a unique recipe for banh cuon and banh khot - trust me it is delicious!
Watch it on YouTube at bit.ly/cookingwithculture-vietnamese or on Channel 44 9.30pm tonight or Saturday 4pm and Tuesday 10.30am.

I am now in the midst of editing this with direction from Colleen to shape an immersive experience to help connect viewers with Arabana cultural stories and songlines!
