    Ingredients

    • ½ pound white or brown mushrooms cleaned and thinly sliced
    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • ¾ cup thinly sliced shallots
    • 4 scallions white and green parts divided and very thinly sliced
    • 4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
    • 1 pound firm or extra-firm tofu drained
    • ½ cup vegetable broth
    • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons lime juice
    • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
    • 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
    • 2 teaspoons Madras curry powder or East Indian-style curry powder

    Sandwiches

    • Four 6- to 8-inch crusty sandwich rolls or sliced from 2 baguettes
    • Vegan mayonnaise
    • Cilantro sprigs
    • Thin slices of ripe tomato
    • Paper-thin slices of red radish or matchsticks of daikon or jicama
    • Asian garlic chili sauce such as Sriracha or sambal oelek
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Heat a wok or cast-iron skillet until nearly smoking, then sauté mushrooms with 1 tablespoon of the oil until tender and browned, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from wok.
    • Wipe down the surface, and add remaining oil. Add the shallots and stir-fry until golden, about 4 minutes, then add the white parts of the scallion and the garlic and stir-fry for 1 minute.
    • Crumble in the tofu, add the mushrooms, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Whisk together vegetable broth, soy sauce, lime juice, coriander, white pepper, and curry powder and pour over tofu. Use a large wooden spoon or rubber spatula to stir-fry tofu until all of the liquid has been absorbed and tofu is golden, about 8 to 10 minutes. Tofu should be moist, but not wet.
    • Add the green tops of the scallions, fry for another minute, and remove from the heat.
    • Slice the rolls in half and toast if desired. Spread insides with mayo and distribute the tofu mixture evenly on the sandwiches.
    • Top each sandwich with cilantro, tomato, radish, and chili sauce. Eat immediately, and over a plate … these bahn mi are messy goodness.
