Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start by preparing the tofu. Cut the pressed tofu into thin rectangular slices, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Marinate the tofu slices in this mixture for about 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry the tofu slices until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove from the heat and set aside.

  4. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce to create the spicy mayo. Adjust the amount of Sriracha to suit your spice preference.

  5. Slice the French baguette horizontally, not cutting all the way through. Spread the spicy mayo on both sides of the baguette.

  6. Arrange the crispy tofu slices on one side of the baguette, followed by the pickled carrots and daikon radish, fresh cilantro leaves, and sliced jalapeños.

  7. Close the sandwich and press gently to ensure all the ingredients are packed together nicely. Serve your Tofu Banh Mi With Spicy Mayo immediately for the best taste and texture.
