Bánh Tét
''Bánh tét'' is a Vietnamese savoury but sometimes sweetened cake made primarily from glutinous rice, which is rolled in a banana leaf into a thick, log-like cylindrical shape, with a mung bean and pork filling, then boiled. After cooking, the banana leaf is removed and the cake is sliced into wheel-shaped servings. Etymology "Bánh tét", which is originated from Southern Vietnam, is commonly believed to be influenced by the symbol of lingam since Southern Vietnam was the descendant of Champa kingdom. Unlike Northern Vietnam where culture were heavily influenced by China, the kingdom of Champa, as well as the Khmer Empire and the other Southeast Asia countries were dominated by Ancient India's culture. This culture shaped the culture of Southern Vietnam since the territories of Southern Vietnam used to be the entire Champa kingdom and parts of the ancient Funan, which latterly became a part of Khmer Empire. The shape of lingam is found in many varieties of Southeast As ...
