Food

I listen to that show most weeks and it's nearly always very interesting, it's one of my favourite radio 4 shows (yes, i am only 30, not 50).

tastes like chicken...

It tastes lovely, we used it this evening in a rocket, grilled baby courgette and chilli breadcrumb salad (Polpo cookbook) with a thin panko chicken cotoletta. It's had my grubby fingers on it now but if you want a fresh wedge the good lady goes at least once a month.

It was about €20/kg.

It;s 11:56 and I just finished eating the massive home made bahn mi i brought in for lunch. Lips tingling. *buuuuurp

Leftover roast pork loin, thinly sliced and grill panned till crispy, small baguette spread with pork liver pate on one side and laughing cow on the other. Add pork, lots of Sriracha, grated carrot "pickled" in lime juice and rice vinegar with a drop of fish sauce, heaps of chopped coriander, mint and spring onion.

/* *hides away my white bread crab pate and lettuce sandwich**

Sounds good. I love a good old fashioned sandwich. Corned beef or cheese and pickle on thick white bread. Mmmmm... Proustian.

Gotta braise that meat for a good Bahn Mi. Braise it loooooong with caramelised brown sugar, shitloads of black pepper and a good dash of fish sauce. And I personally like thinly sliced red peppers much better than overpowering Sriracha. Also, gotta have pickled daikon. Aint no Bahn Mi without pickled daikon. I usually pickle in a mix of water, rice vinegar and suggar for a bit of added sweetness. Also, the laughing cow? On a Bahn Mi sandwich? U mad bro? Use home made mayo with soy sauce. I prefer the coriander-only road. But mint and spring onion can be a personal preference I guess.

We were in Sydney the other week, had the best bahn mi I've ever tasted... Huge and only $5...

You're all wrong bahn mi needs to have fatty bits of you hope pork, with pate and in a sort of stale baguette. All warmed up by the sun

back on the bread, joe?

#smh

I make no claim for authenticity. This was a ghetto lunchbox version knocked up in minutes aiming for deliciousness with the ingredients I had.

stop getting bahn me wrong!

Plus I've had loads of proper street banh mi with Laughing Cow. They love laughing cow in Vietnam. Never seen a street vendor make his own mayo yo. Just sayin.

Dammit now I want another one.

and i bet you ate it off a square plate.

you sicken me.

Once in a while, too much ferociously delicious bahn mi out here... Gotta be done...

@greenhell, the square plate's days are numbered apparently. New crockery is being browsed. Mrs Apone wants to know if I'm happy to escape the vicious online abuse but I kind of want the new set to be oblong and made of slate. Maybe just 8 miniature chopping boards and fake deep fat fryer baskets or little buckets. Just for you. xx

curse yooooou!
