VIETNAMESE BANH MI SANDWICH WITH GRILLED BEEF



Vietnamese Banh Mi Sandwich With Grilled Beef image

The Vietnamese sandwich is a wonderful combination of flavors and textures. This version is made with very thinly sliced grilled beef with a charred and carmelized meat flavor, a layer of crunchy sweet and sour pickled carrots and daikon (recipe posted separately), a layer of soft and sweet shallots and fresh and crispy lettuce and cilantro. The recipe is from The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook by Jaden Hair. Tip: slice the beef very thinly before the meat has completely thawed, or ask the butcher to slice it thinly when you purchase it. If you have a package of the thinly sliced beef for cheese steaks, that will work too (as long as it isn't pre-seasoned).

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons peanut oil (more may be needed)
1 lb sirloin, sliced very thin (rib eye, strip steak, or pre-sliced beef for cheese steaks may be used instead)
5 shallots, thinly sliced (you may substitute an onion if you don't have shallots)
4 French baguettes (sandwich size - 8 inches each)
8 lettuce leaves, large leafy type
1 cup carrot, daikon pickle recipe
4 sprigs cilantro

Steps:

  • Whisk together the garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, pepper, and 1 tbsp peanut oil in a large bowl. Add the sliced beef and mix well to coat each slice. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or overnight in the refrigerator).
  • Heat a grill pan (or electric grill appliance) until it is hot. Brush 1 tbsp oil on the pan. Add the beef slices in batches, laying them flat in a single layer, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute and flip each slice, repeating on the other side (unless you are using the double sided grill appliance, and then you would not flip and repeat). Remove the beef slices when they are just slightly charred, but not overcooked. Drain off and reserve the juices. Repeat, brushing grill pan with additional oil when necessary, until all the beef slices are grilled.
  • When the beef is grilled, brush the pan with more oil and add the shallots (or onions). Grill them until just softened. Reserve any remaining juices along with the carmelized bits.
  • Assemble the sandwiches by slicing the French baguettes in half lengthwise, brushing each half with some of the pan juices; add 2 lettuce leaves, 1/4 of the grilled beef, 1/4 cup of the carrot daikon pickle, grilled shallots and a sprig of fresh cilantro.

You gotta try this! I threw this together out of things in the fridge and it is just fantastic! (Well, the bread wasn't in the fridge!) Try to use crusty bread, it is really good that way.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 -4 ounces thin sliced deli roast beef
1 6 inch crusty French baguette
iceberg lettuce
2 tablespoons shredded carrots
1 1/2 tablespoons sambal oelek chili paste (amount approximate and to taste)
1 1/2 tablespoons thai sweet chili sauce (I used Mae Ploy brand)
nuoc cham sauce (recipe ID #25375)

Steps:

  • Place beef on baguette and warm in microwave, if desired.
  • On each side of bread, pour enough nuoc cham to moisten bread fairly well.
  • On top of beef, spread sambal oelek (to the amount desired).
  • Top with lettuce and a generous sprinkling of grated carrot.
  • Pour chilli sauce on top of lettuce, top with upper half of bread; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak or sirloin steak are good choices for Vietnamese beef sandwiches. They are both relatively tender and flavorful cuts of meat.
  • Slice the beef thinly: This will help it cook quickly and evenly.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, and lemongrass will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Cook the beef over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the beef and keep it juicy on the inside.
  • Assemble the sandwiches: Place the grilled beef on a baguette and top with pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and a spicy sauce.

Conclusion:

Vietnamese beef sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a sandwich that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting sandwich recipe, give Vietnamese beef sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed!
