In some 2000-10s comedy, "bish, make me a sandwich" is a common punchline. It begs the question, what goes in the sandwich?

As a follow up, how does that differ from the sandwich you might make for yourself?

OK, here's what you do, you followin' me camera guy?

You take chicken breasts and put them in a ziploc bag with some soy sauce and let them refrigerate overnight.

The next day, you cube them, skewer them and grill them until done.

On a large onion bun, you paint one side with hoisin sauce, one side with thai peanut sauce, then you put the chicken on the bun.

Top with a combination of shredded carrots, cabbage, and purple cabbage, soaked in sweet chili sauce.

Put the bun together, wrap in foil, serve warm, and enjoy.

It's a sandwich so good it can enslave lesser minds.

Could have just said bahn mi, but I like the visuals.

[–] jordanlund 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Bahn mi, here at any rate, is served on crusty French bread with cilantro and mayo and is pork rather than chicken, but I get the similarity. :)

Now you both have my undivided attention.

Partner will never make for me because she’s not a fan of white condiments and thinks cilantro tastes like soap but….

Both versions sound very interesting.

Like interesting e ough to consider getting up off my big fat tail and making it myself, imagine that…

If you find a place that makes them, they're generally super cheap too. I buy them 2 or 3 at a time. :)

In Vietnam, they had bread that was basically tender like milk bread, but with a slightly stronger crust, so just grabbing it, no matter how carefully would result in compressing the inner bun while fracturing the crust.

For those of us that wouldn't know what bahn mi is. It sounds delicious.

That's not really a banh mi, banh mi is on a French roll, typically with mayo, paté, various protein options (Vietnamese cold cuts are common, grilled pork/chicken, meatballs/sausage, tofu, etc), pickled carrots and daikon radish, cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeños. At least from my experience. I'm not sure how strict a definition it has, but it definitely comes on a French roll. They're absolutely delicious, I highly recommend you try one! That other sandwich sounds good too though.

That's not really a banh mi, they are baguettes. Also a ton of different "fillings" can go into one of those, so it's good to be specific.

Sounds great, though.
