    Can substitute apple cider vinegar for rice wine vinegar, regular baguette for Vietnamese baguette, sambal oelek or sambal bajak for Sriracha sauce, and the book's "Five-spice sesame and soy mushrooms" or "Sesame- and soy-lacquered chicken" for fish fingers. See recipe for vegetable and garnish suggestions, and for variations.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Delicious! But when is a banh mi not delicious.

    This was so good!! It's not crazily different from other banh mi recipes, but i've made both the mushroom filling and the prawns (also for the bibimbap) and it was so addictive, absolutely loved it.
