1/2 bundle Cilantro

8 tbsp Pickled Carrots & Daikon

Directions

Lemongrass Beef:

Thinly slice beef and add to a mixing bowl (If you freeze up the meat for 45 minutes it will be easier to slice)

Mince garlic, Shallots and Lemongrass and combine with the beef and marinade ingredients:

Mix together and optionally marinate for 30 minutes.

Heat a pan to Medium/Medium high and sear meat on each side for 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked. Set aside and repeat until all the meat is cooked.

Banh Mi:

Slice Banh Mi Bread vertically, but not all the way through. Optionally you can toast the bread if you like a crispy Banh Mi.

While the bread is toasting, Slice cucumbers and jalapeños

Time to assemble! Spread 1-2 tbsp of Vietnamese Mayo on the bread, and top with Lemongrass Beef, Cucumbers, Jalapeños, Pickled Carrots & Daikon and Cilantro.

Enjoy!
