Directions:
Combine the ingredients for the pickled radish and carrots and mix until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Pour over the carrots and daikon radish in a glass jar.
Combine emu marinade ingredients and marinade the emu in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Grill or pan cook the emu steaks to medium rare, apps 135F internal temp. Cover with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly, and make a sandwich, I like to add mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, the thinly sliced meat, and top with the pickled vegetables, cilantro, green onions, and additional toppings of choice, such as jalapeños, fresh watercress and/or pea shoots.
A delicious take on Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwiches!
