LAY HO MA everyone! I’m Wil Yeung. Join me in today’s incredible episode on how to make vegan banh mi (or Bánh mì)! This delicious Vietnamese sandwich is not only easy to make (like all my no BS vegan recipes!), but you can take it with you on the go! I absolutely love the taste of fresh herbs and veggies mixed in with the simple, but complex flavours of Vietnam.
Ingredients:
– extra firm tofu
– small baguette (or premium hot dog buns!)
– 3 to 4 carrots
– 1 to 3 fresh jalapeños
– 1 English cucumber
– 1 tbsp cane sugar
– 1 tbsp salt
– 1 tbsp chilli flakes
– juice from 2 lemons
– a few sprigs of cilantro
– sriracha
– salt and pepper
Directions:
1. preheat your oven to 325F
2. Pat dry with a paper towel, and slice them into small rectangles
3. place them on a baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper
4. bake your tofu for 20-25min
5. julianne your cucumber
6. shred your carrots with a grater or food processor
7. in a mixing bowl, add cane sugar, salt, chilli flakes, and lemon juice (using a sieve to catch the seeds)
8. stir the marinade to dissolve the sugar
9. add the carrots, toss, and let it marinate (longer the better!)
10. slice your bread and toast them in the oven 2min before your tofu is done
11. once your tofu is done, start assembling your sandwiches!
12. start with your cucumber, then tofu, then carrots, then some sriracha, jalapeños, and some cilantro
13. that’s it, enjoy!
