Last week, Australian Ambassador Craig Chittick and HCMC Consul General Karen Lanyon learnt how to make moon cakes with an Australian twist with award winning Australian Chef Tracey Lister and chef Duyen from Hanoi Cooking Centre.
Apart from Vietnamese ingredients such as rice flour, young sticky rice paste, sausages, coconut and lime leaves, Chef Tracey also included Australian dried apricots and indigenous macadamia  to create innovative new flavors.
