Step 1
Combine soy sauce, fish sauce, minced garlic, honey, and black pepper in a bowl. Add sliced beef and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Add julienned daikon and carrots, toss well, and let sit for 10 minutes to soften.
Step 3
Slice baguettes lengthwise and lightly toast if desired.
Step 4
Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add marinated beef in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through. Set aside.
Step 5
Spread mayonnaise on the inside of each baguette. Layer beef, pickled vegetables, cucumber slices, jalapeños, cilantro, and mint.
Step 6
Serve immediately while the beef is warm.
