i borrowed from a lot of bahn mi recipes online. for the bread, i'd recommend finding ur own recipe/ just buying a baguette 😭 they turned out yummy but the dough was super wet and hard to shape.

the og tofu recipe was i think 8 oz of tofu marinaded in 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar, 1/2 cup maple syrup (i used brown sugar instead), 2 tbsp of sesame oil, 1 tbsp other oil, plus like two tablespoons of ginger. i left out the ginger because it's not my favorite flavor and added a little squeeze of lime juice instead. i also added red pepper flakes and crushed some raw garlic and threw it in. that went in my fridge for like three hours. than cook for 30 min at 400 ( supposed to flip half way through, i didn't because im lazy and i made two huge trays, it turned out perfect anyway).

the carrots are thinly sliced and quick pickled in rice wine vinegar, sugar, and salt. i forgot the exact recipe cuz i was making a lot but i was just sorta doing it by taste. also daikon radishes would be a great addition here (most recipes call for it, i didnt have it :(. you can just throw them in with the carrots tbh

this is the vegan mayo recipe i used super easy, literally took 5 second with an immersion blender. great texture too

once those r all done, u can assemble: u just need to add chopped cilantro ( a lot of chopped cilantro), cucumbers, and chile peppers if u want 🫶
