Prepare the Bánh Đa noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the dried bánh đa noodles and cook according to package directions, typically 5-8 minutes, until tender but still slightly chewy (al dente). Drain immediately and rinse under cold running water to stop the cooking and prevent sticking. Cut the noodles into manageable, bite-sized strips (about 1/4 inch wide). Set aside.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Cook the proteins: Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the thinly sliced beef and stir-fry until just cooked through and no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to the skillet. Add the shrimp and stir-fry until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp and set aside with the beef.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
If making homemade fried shallots: Fry the thinly sliced shallots in a small amount of neutral oil over medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels. (Skip this if using store-bought).
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Assemble the salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked bánh đa noodles, cooked beef, cooked shrimp, and the mixed fresh herbs and vegetables. Pour the nuoc cham dressing over the ingredients. Gently toss everything together until well combined and the noodles and proteins are evenly coated with the dressing. Ensure the herbs and vegetables are distributed throughout.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Serve: Divide the bánh đa trộn among serving bowls. Generously sprinkle with crispy fried shallots just before serving for added texture and flavor.
