Homemade Banh Mi

I made everything but the bread. It was delicious! I could have taken a better photo but I was hungry!

This is the recipe I used.

No pâté?
- I wasn't aware that they have a pate. I guess my area doesn't add it to their Banh Mi's.
  
  Definitely look into it! I believe it's a holdover from French colonisation. I don't know what type is used but it is quite nice combined with the rest of the flavours.
fucking DROOOOOOOOL what a sandwich you knocked it out of the park
- Haha thanks!
Being home cooks we've made banh mi and all the creative concoctions for years, you killed it here, thanks for the recipe and links.
- The first time I made it at home it felt difficult but it's really not too bad. Thank you and your welcome!
You should commission this photo as a painting
- Haha thanks for the complement!
Banh mi is so good. There was a little Vietnamese cafe nextdoor to a place I used to work, I went there every workday. I saved so much money after I moved to a different location xD
- That sounds awesome.
  
  I have a feeling I would do the same if I had a place so close. The closest banh mi near me is a 45 minute drive so I basically have to make it myself if I want it.
What percentage of the sandwich filling had to be eaten with a fork afterwards? (I’m not knocking it, just curious.)
- It was more like I would pick up the pieces and shove them back in the sandwich as I ate it!
Man I haven't made that for ages. Where i grew up all the shopping malls would have a guy with a little electric grill making these and they were amazing. Going to make it today for cooking tomorrow! I tend to use chicken but maybe I'll try pork thise time
- That's awesome!
  
  I'll try chicken next time!
