As Bambuza Vietnam Kitchen’s Katherine Lam says, “Don’t let making meals at home scare you. It’s not about trying to impress your friends with a fancy dinner party. It’s about being creative with every day groceries, learning what foods you didn’t know you liked and cooking while no one’s watching and there’s no pressure.”

That’s not the only helpful culinary advice Katherine dishes out in this six-minute video. The co-owner of Bambuza Hospitality Group, Port of Portland Commissioner and PDX People working committee member will show you how to adapt her restaurant’s salad roll recipe so you can make it at home with whatever ingredients you have on hand. All you need are the essentials – rice paper, lettuce, herbs and vegetables – and you can make this easy meal part of your daily routine.
