Method
-
step 1
Use two forks to finely shred the ham, or chop into small cubes. Thinly slice the onion whites, then shred the greens finely and leave in ice-cold water.
-
step 2
Mix the sesame oil, hoisin, soy, tomato purée, honey and five-spice, then stir in the spring onion whites and ham.
-
step 3
Cut the cucumber into long thin slices. Mix the sriracha and vinegar with a good pinch of salt and the chilli flakes, and toss through the cucumbers to coat. If you can, leave for 15 minutes to marinate.
-
step 4
Split the baguette in half horizontally but not all the way through, and fill with the shredded ham, chilli cucumbers, drained spring onion greens, baby gem and mayo. Cut into 4 pieces to serve.
