Lemongrass Vietnamese meatballs: you’ll need one batch of our flavorful lemongrass Vietnamese meatballs. Thinly sliced vegetables: we use a mix of thinly sliced carrots, cucumber, bell peppers, and red onion to mimic the pickled veggies you’d find in a traditional banh mi sandwich. Sea salt + sugar: some sea salt and granulated or cane sugar is used to season the vegetables. Rice noodles: we use rice sticks or vermicelli because they’re most common, but feel free to use your favorite variety. Sriracha mayo: sriracha mayo is creamy and a bit spicy. It’s really easy to make with just two ingredients: sriracha and mayonnaise. Scroll down to our recipe notes for how to make your own. Cilantro and Thai basil: fresh herbs are an integral part of Vietnamese cooking. You can add other herbs like fresh mint as well. Sesame seeds: sesame seeds are a bit crunchy with a nutty flavory, and are visually pretty as a garnish.
Here’s what you need for the ginger-lime dressing:
Lime juice: fresh lime juice adds a bright citrus pop to this vibrant dressing. Oil: any neutral-flavored oil works here like avocado oil or vegetable oil. Rice vinegar: rice vinegar is a delicate, mild, and slightly sweet seasoning vinegar. Sriracha: sriracha is a spicy and tangy Asian hot sauce that’s known for its versatility. It enhances everything from soups, to stews, and sauces. Garlic + ginger: garlic and ginger add that extra depth of flavor that makes this sauce truly satisfying.
Here’s how we make them in a few simple steps:
