Treat your ingredients with care...
- Bánh mì sausages — To enhance the flavor, marinate the sausages in a mixture of soy sauce, fish sauce, and five-spice powder for 30 minutes before baking.
- Sweet potatoes — Boil the sweet potatoes until they are easily pierced with a fork, but be careful not to overcook them as they can become mushy.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of sriracha or chili flakes to the sausages while cooking.
- If you can't find bánh mì sausages, you can use any Vietnamese-style sausages or even regular pork sausages seasoned with Vietnamese spices.
- Serve with a side of pickled vegetables or a fresh Vietnamese salad for a complete meal.
Serving advice
Serve the Vietnamese-style Bangers and Mash hot, with the sausages placed on top of the creamy mashed sweet potatoes. Garnish with fresh cilantro for added freshness and color.
Presentation advice
Arrange the mashed sweet potatoes on a plate, creating a bed for the bánh mì sausages. Place the sausages on top and drizzle any remaining sauce from the skillet over the dish. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro for an attractive presentation.
