My wife wanted to eat banh mi tonight. She's also pregnant, so lately she's getting exactly what she wants. It was actually perfect because I had so many of the ingredients handy.
Pork belly from some kakuni I made earlier this week
Some pickled carrot and daikon I made months ago.
Cilantro is usually always readily available.
And some chicken liver pate I took home from work the other day.
I only had to run to the store to get bread and cucumber. The bread I got was a bolillo roll from Safeway (I usually try to avoid the Safeway by my house because it blows,) but the light airy bread was perfect. A little aioli and sriracha and it's done.
When I'm at a restaurant I usually get the pork bologna stuff, it's my favorite. Curious what all your opinions are on this Vietnamese delight, and how you guys like to eat them.
Here was dinner
