[1][2] The main ingredients of bánh gối are commonly seasoned ground meat, mushrooms, vermicelli, and diced vegetables such as carrots, kohlrabi and jicama (like the ingredients of chả giò); sometimes boiled egg and sliced Chinese sausage are used.

Bánh gối is also made in pastry form with mung bean, sugar and shredded coconut as filling.

Portuguese traders and explorers were the first Europeans to enter Asia in the 1500s, building settlements to test the lucrative spice trade in Goa, India, Malacca and Macau.

Bánh gối originally from Guangdong yau gok; deep-fried jiaozi was introduced to Vietnam before 1954.
