While I was visiting Vietnam, this was my daily breakfast, and I've since been obsessed with it. I love the simplicity of it. So much flavor emerges from a very modest list of ingredients—eggs, vegetables, herbs, hot sauce, mayonnaise, and fish sauce.
You should get really excited about fish sauce and mayonnaise; mixed together, the fish sauce lightly seasons the mayonnaise with an ideal amount of salt and depth. Fish sauce mayonnaise is a condiment that I could use in endless applications. For starters, it make the best BLT you've ever had (fish sauce loves fatty pork) and adds a whole new dimension to tuna salad.
