This is a very simple and rather fast dish to whip up. I often see food vendors selling this on the streets of Bangkok and many seafood restaurants in Thailand has this too!
Vermicelli aka Tang Hoon aka Dong Fen has no taste on its own and they easily soak up flavours of any seasonings. This is my first attempt and I am extremely happy with the results because it's packed full of flavours and everything was finished in minutes!
