Description

You’re better than just heating up that leftover pork. Make this delicious Bánh mì (Vietnamese baguette) instead.

Ingredients

  • ¼ whole Sweet White Onion, Thinly Sliced
  • 1 cup Radishes, Thinly Sliced
  • 2 whole Small Or 1 Large Carrot, Shredded Or Julienned
  • ¼ cups Water
  • ¼ cups Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • ½ cups Mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoons Sriracha, Divided (Thai Hot Sauce)
  • 1 Tablespoon Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
  • 12 ounces, weight Thin-sliced Cooked Pork, Cut Into Strips
  • 2 teaspoons Fish Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 1 whole Large Or 2 Small Baguettes, Cut Into Four Sandwich Size Portions And Split
  • ½ whole Cucumber, Cut Into 3- By 1/2-inch Strips
  • 1 whole Jalapeno Pepper, Seeded And Thinly Sliced (optional)
  • 1 whole Handful Of Cilantro Leaves

Preparation

Place onion, radishes and carrots into a medium bowl, then add water, rice wine vinegar and sugar; let stand 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix mayonnaise and 1 tablespoons of the Sriracha in a small bowl. Heat oil and garlic in a medium frying pan. Once garlic sizzles, add the pork, followed by the fish sauce, soy sauce and remaining tablespoon of Sriracha. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.

When ready to assemble, drain vegetables. Spread each baguette with a portion of the mayonnaise mixture and top with a portion of marinated vegetables, cucumbers, jalapeno, cilantro leaves and finally the pork. Cap with baguette top and enjoy!

My husband isn’t a pork fan. I wonder if I could use chicken for this….I’ve been wanting to try one of these ever since the Food Truck competition on Food Network!

Oh, yum. I LOVE Banh Mi. There’s a little shop on the U of MN campus that is my kryptonite. :)

Yummmmmmm! There’a a great little Vietnamese sandwich shop down in Oklahoma City that gets their baguettes from the delicious French restaurant. I can’t wait to try this myself at home!

My husband said, “These ROCK!! This is the best sandwich I’ve ever had!” Now really, for a white boy from MI, doesn’t that say it all? :)

I made these with chicken and small shrimp because my husband isn’t a fan of pork. I sliced the cooked chicken *very* finely and was glad I did. I doubled the sauce and the pickling mixture and used a pound of meat. I’m not a big radish fan, but I kept them in; used red and daikon radish. I halved the sriracha because we are wimps. It’s the COMBINATION of all of these ingredients that makes this sandwich. By using a pound of meat, it made enough for an entire long baguette and a half.

Don’t be worried about buying more sriracha and fish sauce than you need. Both keep forever and a day and live in my beer fridge.

Thank you for this recipe. It’s going into our regular rotation.
