Ingredients

  • 1 demi-baguette
  • 2 eggs

  • fish sauce
  • pepper
  • pork liver pâté
  • mayonnaise
  • 1 cucumber sliced thin
  • ¼ bunch coriander
  • 1 banana chilli thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180°C (355°F).

  • Slice the baguette lengthways but don’t cut all the way through.
  • Break the eggs into a small bowl and whisk lightly, add a dash of fish sauce and a little pepper. Don’t add salt, the fish sauce is salty enough.
  • Add a tablespoon of vegetable to an omelette pan over medium-high heat, add the eggs and make an omelette following the directions in this post.
  • Spread a little pâté on the bottom half of the baguette and mayonnaise on the top half.
  • Add the cucumber slices on top of the pâté, the omelette and then slices of the char siu pork.
