["In a bowl, mix cabbage and carrots with 1/4 cup rice vinegar, the salt, and sugar; let stand about 30 minutes.", "In a food processor or blender, combine remaining 1/4 cup rice vinegar with green onions, lime juice, ginger, garlic, and five-spice powder. Whirl until smooth. Pour mixture into a bowl. Add turkey and mix to coat.", "Split baguette sections or bolillos lengthwise almost all the way through, leaving halves attached at one side. Spread about 1 tsp. chili paste on 1 cut side of each. Mound turkey mixture on top, then add on cabbage mixture and cilantro leaves.", "Note: Nutritional analysis is per sandwich.", "The bagged shredded green cabbage sold as ""angel hair"" works well for this slaw. Vietnamese subs, called bahn mi, often include a layer of chicken-liver pate and/or pork cold cuts. Spread some over the chili paste, if you like, before you add the turkey.", "Bolillos are Mexican or Salvadoran rolls with a crusty exterior, soft interior, and torpedo shape; find them at Latino bakeries and grocery stores."]
