Vietnamese Banh Mi Sandwich

Slice the baguettes lengthwise, leaving one side connected so they open like a sandwich. If desired, lightly toast the bread for a few minutes to create extra crispiness, then allow it to cool slightly before assembling.

Spread mayonnaise evenly inside each baguette. Mix the soy sauce with sriracha and drizzle lightly over the bread for extra savory and spicy flavor.

Layer the cooked pork evenly inside each baguette. Add pickled carrots, cucumber slices, fresh cilantro, and jalapeños if using. Season lightly with black pepper.

Press the sandwich gently together and slice it in half if desired. Serve immediately while the baguette is crisp and the fillings are fresh.
