1
Prepare the Pork Belly
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Season the pork belly with salt and pepper. Place it in a roasting pan and cook for 2 to 3 hours, or until tender. Let it rest before slicing.
2
Prepare the Vegetables
In a bowl, combine the julienned carrots with a pinch of salt and let them sit for 10 minutes. Rinse and drain. Slice the cucumber and jalapenos thinly.
3
Assemble the Banh Mi
Slice the French bread lengthwise, leaving one side attached. Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on both sides. Layer the sliced pork belly, carrots, cucumber, jalapenos, basil, and cilantro inside the bread.

Serve
Cut the sandwich into manageable portions and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade Banh Mi!
