Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Fry the Tofu

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Mix the Sriracha Aioli

    In a bowl, combine mayonnaise and sriracha. Mix until smooth and set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Bahn Chi

    Slice the baguette lengthwise. Spread a layer of sweet chili sauce inside the baguette. Add crispy tofu, kimchee, fresh cilantro, and sliced jalapeños. Drizzle with sriracha aioli.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the baguette into individual servings and serve immediately.
