Tender, savory seared steak is tossed in tangy nuoc cham—a Vietnamese fish sauce—and piled into toasted baguettes. These sandwiches also feature favorite banh mi–inspired toppings: Sriracha mayo and quick-pickled carrot and cucumber. Crispy roasted potato wedges on the side round out the meal.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Cut potatoes into ¼-inch-thick wedges. Grate carrot on the largest holes of a box grater. Trim and halve cucumber lengthwise; cut crosswise into half-moons. Roughly chop cilantro. 

Season & Roast Potatoes
2
  • Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.

Pickle Carrot & Cucumber
3
  • While potatoes roast, in a medium bowl, combine carrot, cucumber, vinegar, ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings), salt, and pepper.

  • Stir in cilantro; set aside, stirring occasionally, until ready to serve.

Season & Cook Steak
4
  • Pat steak* dry with paper towels; slice crosswise into ¼-inch-thick pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 minutes per side.

  • Transfer steak to a second medium bowl. Add nuoc cham sauce; toss until evenly coated.

Finish & Serve
5
  • Halve and toast baguettes until golden.

  • In a small bowl, combine Sriracha and mayonnaise.

  • Spread cut sides of baguettes with as much Sriracha mayo as you like. Fill with steak and pickled carrot and cucumber (draining first). Serve with potato wedges and any remaining Sriracha mayo on the side.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Sep 2026
  • Flavor: The pickled carrot and cucumber topping was a fresh, bright highlight, and the sriracha mayo added a great kick 🌶️. Opinions on the nuoc cham sauce were split — some loved the bold, tangy flavor; others found it too pungent or fishy.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to put together, with most steps coming together smoothly.
  • Suggestions: Rest the steak whole before slicing thin — several reviewers found pre-slicing led to tougher, chewier pieces. One reviewer added a squeeze of lime to the mayo for extra brightness, which worked really well.
  • Leftovers: Not recommended for leftovers — the sandwich components are best assembled and eaten fresh.
