Sesame Beef Sandwich with Asian Slaw and Wasabi Mayo

Sometimes leftovers can be as enjoyable as on the first day!

Sometimes they can even be better!

Last week I shared a delicious recipe for Sesame Asian Beef Skewers.

For that recipe, I made my first video tutorial and posted it up on youtube. The link for that video is here. In preparation for that video I prepped and grilled tons of the skewers. We ate them straight up the first two days and they are totally amazing like that. But on day 3, I knew that innovation was necessary. Since I always love a good sandwich, I figured that was the way to go.

This sandwich reminds me of a Vietnamese banh mi sandwich, and those are amazing. This sandwich was awesome! The Asian slaw goes so well with the sesame beef and the wasabi mayo is creamy with a great kick. This sandwich is so incredible that I may be making more of those beef skewers just so that I can make these again!

    The slaw and beef alone sound outstanding…and putting them together was pure genius! Great sandwich, Steve!

    This looks wonderful even though I don’t enjoy wasabi a lot, but the home-made feel of the dish is lovely; it’s something we try to achieve as well in our posts.
    I love your blog and am surprised I didn’t discover it earlier.

    Have a nice week ! 🙂

    Oh yes, I totally agree. I sometimes leave some meat so that I can make sandwich next day…and I look forward to next day lunch while packing! I still have at least one kid at home who needs lunch so I actually eat quite well (I think I’d eat whatever if I don’t have kids at home..haha). I’m going to make this slaw and make the sandwich! But minus wasabi – I’m the only Japanese who doesn’t like wasabi… I know strange huh. 😀
