Method

Ingredients

1. To make the quick-pickled carrots, place the vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Gently stir the vinegar once it begins to simmer to ensure the sugar dissolves, then remove from the heat. Add the carrots and allow to cool while preparing the remaining ingredients.

2. Halve the bread for a generous banh mi or slice into 4 for a light lunch. Spread the snoek pâté on one half and the mayonnaise on the other.

3. Add the pickled carrots, cucumber, coriander, mint and lamb. Finish with spring onion and a squeeze of lime.
