Bánh mì

Ingredients
- baguette (you want one from a Vietnamese bakery as they are light and crispy. If you can't find one, you can use a normal baguette)

- cucumber batons, around 10cm
- spring onions, cut into 10 cm strips
- coriander
- mayonnaise
- Maggi seasoning
- sliced bird's eye chilli
- sliced Char Siu Pork (or chicken) (recipe below)
Method
1. Start by warming the baguette and slicing it in the centre.
2. Add the pate to one side and mayo on the other, then a few drops of the Maggi.
3. Layer in the pork, cucumber, spring onions, pickled carrot and daikon and coriander.
4. Finish with the sliced chillies and enjoy!

Method
1. Place the carrots and daikon into a bowl, sprinkle with the salt and mix well. Set aside for 30 minutes.
2. After 30 min, wash and drain well.
3. In a jar, add the vinegar, water and sugar and mix until the sugar has dissolved.
4. Add the washed carrots and daikon to the vinegar and leave in the fridge for up to 1 month but you can use it straight away.
Char Siu Pork
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp Chinese 5 spice
- 1 tbsp brown sugar

Andy's ability to cook Asian food is amazing. From Korean, to Japanese, to Chinese, to Vietnamese, to Thai, to Malaysian, to Singaporean. Takes a lot of skill, considering vast differences in culinary approach, ingredients (apart from a few obvious common ones). With his amazing Japanese inspired tattoos, ability to cook Asian foods so well, one could swear Andy is Asian in another life.

[@billybobbember]

I am truly astonished by your skills. But even the bread looks really authentic, and a real banh mi would have this super airy inside and the crispy slightly chewy outside, it's not just an normal baguette (Vietnamese like their bread airy, plus it makes the bread seem bigger than it is, compared to the dough weight). You do pay a lot of attention to the small details! Chapeau!

[@misledpoet]

He lives in Australia. Where I live in Sydney, most of the bakeries are run by Vietnamese families for generations. I don't know exaclty where he lives, but if it's the same case as me, he'll have no issue getting the bread for Banh Mi.
