What is Banh Mi?

Banh mi is a Vietnamese baguette sandwich that is traditionally filled with meat. Banh Mi is the Vietnamese term for a specific type of sandwich.

For today’s recipe we are using marinated tofu, pickled carrots and purple radish, herbs and a vegan mayonnaise.

Preparation

Making them is pretty straightforward, like most sandwiches. We just need some time for the marinated tofu and the pickled vegetables. You can also prepare everything in the evening and let it steep overnight.

At the next day you only have to fry the tofu and your lunch is on the table faster than you can see.

We took a classic baguette and cut 2 pieces off each. You can also use baguette rolls, ciabatta or another long roll.Tofu Banh mi Sandwich recipe - Snacks & Appetizer - Klara`s Life (5)Tofu Banh mi Sandwich recipe - Snacks & Appetizer - Klara`s Life (6)
