Banh mi is a Vietnamese term to describe any type of bread but it is synonymous with baguettes. French-inspired, banh mi are commonly filled with fresh herbs and vegetables, spicy sauces, pate and meat such as chicken or pork.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...
Oven
Baking Tray
Fry Pan
Foil
Preheat oven to 200°C. Peel and mince garlic. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the cucumber into ribbons. Trim and discard roots of the spring onion then thinly slice. Pick coriander leaves, discarding stems. Grate the carrot.
Tip! You can just thinly slice the cucumber if you prefer.
In a bowl, add 1⁄2 the spring onion, garlic and pork. Season with salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix until fully combined. Form mixture into 10-12 balls and arrange in a single layer on a lined baking tray. Bake meatballs, about 7-10 minutes or until cooked through, then set aside. Leave oven on for step 4.
Cut baguettes in half lengthwise, taking care not to cut through. Wrap baguettes in foil and place in oven to warm through, about 5 minutes.
Tip! All preservative free bread, just like the one we send, can be refreshed by quickly running it under water and warming in the oven.
Mix mayo and sriracha (to taste, see tip) together in a small bowl. Spread sriracha mayo inside baguettes. Add cucumber ribbons, grated carrot and meatballs, then top with caramelised onion jam, and scatter with the coriander. Enjoy!
Tip! You can just use normal mayo for the kids if preferred.
