Pork and Pate Banh Mi
RECIPE COURTESY OF JET TILA
Level: Intermediate
Total: 2 hr 15 min (includes marinating time)
Active: 45 min
Yield: 1 long or 3 short sandwiches

Ingredients

Roast Pork:

2 cloves garlic, minced
2 shallots, sliced
3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) fish sauce
3 tablespoons (45 grams) sugar
1 tablespoon (30 grams) minced lemongrass
Heavy pinch black pepper
1 pound (450 grams) pork butt, sliced paper-thin against the grain
Oil, for cooking

Pickled Carrots:

1/2 cup (95 grams) sugar
1/2 cup (90 milliliters) red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 to 3 cloves garlic
5 to 6 sprigs fresh cilantro
1 1/2 cups (330 grams) matchstick carrots

Banh Mi Build:

3 tablespoons (45 grams) mayonnaise
6 ounces pork pate
1 long French baguette (not sourdough), split and lightly toasted
1/4 cup (45 grams) fresh cilantro leaves
1 red jalapeno, sliced very thin
1 large English cucumber, shaved into ribbons with a peeler
2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) light soy sauce

Directions

For the roast pork: Combine the garlic, shallots, fish sauce, sugar, lemongrass, black pepper and 2 tablespoons (30 grams) water in a blender; puree until combined, about 20 seconds. Place the pork in a medium bowl, then pour the marinade over the top and massage well. Marinate for at least 1 hour.

Heat a medium skillet on high heat and add some oil. When you see white wisps of smoke, saute the pork until cooked through, about 5 minutes.

For the pickled carrots: Combine the sugar, vinegar, salt, peppercorns and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar and salt have dissolved, then remove it from the heat. Add the cilantro and carrots and stir to coat them in the pickling mixture. Let stand until the carrots have softened, at least 30 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator. Drain them well and set aside. You can make this days ahead and keep refrigerated in an airtight container.

For the banh mi build: Combine the mayonnaise and pate in a bowl, then spread on the top and bottom of the toasted bread. Top it with the cilantro leaves, chiles, cucumber ribbons, pickled carrots and the grilled pork. There may be some leftover pork, so smash it into your mouth and enjoy while building the banh mi. Sprinkle with the soy sauce and close with the upper half of the baguette.

Cook’s Note

Pro Tip: Combine the pate and mayo in a food processor to make a super smooth spread. You can also sub in cold cuts here for the roast pork to save a step. You can also sub out half the carrots for daikon radish for some extra deliciousness.
