Okay, ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you about my absolute favorite Vietnamese breakfast that’ll have your taste buds doing the cha-cha! Trust me, once you try this Bánh Mì Trứng (Vietnamese Breakfast Sandwich), you’ll never look at regular breakfast sandwiches the same way again.
Y’all, I discovered this recipe during my culinary adventures, and honey, it’s been a game-changer in my morning routine. The combination of crispy baguette, perfectly runny eggs, and Vietnamese pickled vegetables is _chef’s kiss_ pure magic!
What You’ll Need (serves 2):
– 2 Vietnamese baguettes (trust me, French ones aren’t the same!)
– 4 large eggs
– Pâté (about 2 tablespoons)
– Vietnamese mayo
– Fresh cilantro
– Cucumber slices
– Pickled carrots and daikon
– Maggi seasoning sauce
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Butter (because why not?)
(Quick pause – loving this recipe so far? Make sure to follow me on NewsBreak for more mouthwatering recipes that’ll make your kitchen the hottest spot in town! 😘)
Now, let’s get cooking:
1. First things first, slice those baguettes lengthwise but don’t cut all the way through. Pop them in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes until they’re slightly crispy. Girl, that crunch is everything!
1. While your bread is getting toasty, prepare your eggs. I like mine sunny-side up because who doesn’t love that Instagram-worthy yolk porn? Season with salt and pepper.
1. Spread a generous layer of pâté on one side of the bread and mayo on the other. Don’t be shy with it – we’re not counting calories today!
1. Layer in your cucumber slices, pickled veggies, and cilantro. The fresh crunch against the creamy eggs is absolutely divine!
1. Place your perfectly cooked eggs on top and drizzle with Maggi sauce. This step is non-negotiable – it’s what gives it that authentic Vietnamese flavor!
Pro tip: If you’re feeling extra fancy, add some sliced jalapeños for a kick. Because sometimes we all need a little spice in our lives, am I right? 💁♀️
The best part? This whole breakfast situation takes less than 15 minutes to put together. It’s perfect for those mornings when you want to feel fancy but don’t want to spend forever in the kitchen (because we’ve got things to do and people to see!).
