We recently asked people from the BuzzFeed Community to share their favorite Asian breakfast dishes. Here are their best responses:
1. Vietnamese Bahn Mi Op La (Fried Egg Sandwich)

"My fave is Vietnamese banh mi op la, which is basically just a fried egg in a delicious crispy small baguette, with a little chili sauce. Wash it down with some fresh juice and a ca phe sua da (Vietnamese iced coffee), and it'll be the best start to your day!" —Kieran Wemyss Crowe, Facebook

6. Malaysian Roti Canai (Flatbread)

"I love Malaysian roti canai! It's crispy on the outside yet so fluffy on the inside. I prefer to eat it on its own, but a complete roti canai is served with variants of curry (such as dhal, chicken, etc) as well as a dollop of sambal. There are also sweet variants of roti canai, such as roti tissue and roti milo, and these are served with condensed milk instead of the usual accessories." —Moe Nina, Facebook

8. Fried Bee Hon (Rice Vermicelli)

9. Filipino Corned Beef Silog (Fried Rice With Eggs)

10. Hainan Breakfast Noodles

"It's a street food, a breakfast, a staple. It’s sort of like Pho, but is traditionally served in Hainan, China. At breakfast, you put in the vermicelli in the simmering soup, and when it’s cooked to al dente, you pour a nice ladle of clear conch soup or a signature brown gravy. Then, you add all kinds of toppings: cilantro, pickled greens, roast peanuts, bamboo slices, roasted sesame, bean sprouts, garlic, chopped green onion, or marinated pork or beef." —itsamazingracias

11. Chicken Congee (Rice Porridge)

"Whenever I’m back in Indonesia, I always look for chicken congee first thing in the morning. The congee is topped with soy sauce (both sweet and regular), chilli paste, spring onion, crackers, and chicken intestine satay (I know it sounds gross but it’s actually really good)." —astarlightinthegloom

16. Vietnamese Cao Lau Noodles

"My favorite is Cao Lau, a Vietnamese noodle, pork, and herb dish served in one of my favorite cities, Hoi An, where they use water from a specific well in the city to make the broth. Topped with crispy pork, there is nothing more satisfying and delicious to get your day going than this dish." —Mcbucken

17. Chinese Ji Dan Bing (Egg Crepe)

"It is a Taiwanese breakfast that is basically an egg and cheese omelette wrapped in a scallion pancake, served with delicious turnip cakes on the side. All of this comes with a sweet sauce and chili paste. It's delicious and I had it almost every morning I was in Taiwan." —brittanysilva89
