When I had my first Banh Mi sandwich — a Vietnamese staple, with a grilled protein, a creamy sauce, and pickled vegetables — I knew I had to make a Pesach version. This “sandwich” is sensational!

Ingredients

Tuna Banh Matzo

  • 2 slices fresh tuna, 3/4 inch thick

  • kosher salt

  • pepper

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • few sheets of Yehuda Matzo

Curry-Lime Mayonnaise

  • 1 teaspoon curry (see note)

Directions

1.

Place tuna on a cutting board. Season both sides well with salt and pepper.

2.

Preheat a skillet over high heat; add oil, then sear tuna for one to two minutes on each side. Once cooled, slice into quarter-inch slices.

3.

To assemble, spread matzo with a nice amount of Curry Lime Mayonnaise (recipe follows).

4.

Add a layer of sliced tuna; top with Gefen pickled beets. You can also add cilantro, and for a hotter flavor add sliced fresh jalapeño.

Prepare the Curry Lime Mayonnaise

1.

In a bowl, whisk all ingredients together; set aside.

Notes:

You can get Kosher for Passover curry, but if you can’t find it you can substitute it for Kosher for Passover cumin, chili powder, or mix with some sriracha.
