- Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
- Slice potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim, peel, and grate carrot on the largest holes of a box grater; place in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Trim and halve cucumber lengthwise; slice crosswise into ¼-inch-thick half-moons. Roughly chop cilantro, including tender stems. Trim and slice mushrooms into ½-inch-thick pieces (skip if your mushrooms are pre-sliced!).
- Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.
- Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 20-25 minutes.
- While potatoes roast, to bowl with carrot, add cucumber, vinegar, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt (1 tsp sugar and a big pinch of salt for 4 servings). Microwave until sugar has dissolved, 30 seconds.
- Stir in cilantro. Set aside to pickle, stirring occasionally, until ready to use in Step 5.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and slightly crispy, 5-7 minutes.
- Turn off heat; stir in sweet soy glaze until mushrooms are coated. Transfer to a second medium bowl.
- Meanwhile, halve and toast baguettes.
- Drain veggie pickling liquid into a small bowl. Add mustard and a drizzle of oil; whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread cut sides of baguettes with as much spicy mayo as you like. Fill with mushrooms and about half the pickled veggies.
- In a third medium bowl, combine mixed greens, remaining pickled veggies, and as much dressing as you like; toss to combine.
- Divide banh mi, potatoes, and salad between plates. Serve with any remaining spicy mayo on the side for dipping.
Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The sweet soy–glazed mushrooms paired with pickled veggies and spicy mayo created a delicious combination for many. 🌿 Some found the soy glaze too sweet and overpowering; using less glaze or balancing it with extra pickled vegetables helped.
- Ease of prep: The recipe is straightforward to cook, though the chopping and shredding steps add some time; a few noted it generated more dishes than expected.
- Suggestions: Add sliced jalapeños inside the sandwich for a fresh, spicy crunch — a tip straight from a banh mi fan. Some also felt the Dijon dressing was too sharp and preferred a milder vinaigrette, and a few wished for more vinegar in the pickling liquid.
- Portions: The baguettes felt small to some, leaving the fillings a bit lost; doubling the mushrooms and pickled vegetables makes for a more satisfying sandwich.
