Bún riêu cua is traditionally a vermicelli rice noodle soup made with tomato broth, meat, crab and shrimp paste. I'm not a very big fan of the meat flavors with shrimp paste so I usually make it meatless using a paste of soybeans (and add the crab separately). The visuals and texture resemble the crab patties and the broth has the same fragrance due to the sweet tomatoes.
