Bahn Mi Breakfast Bowl with Cilantro Sauce

One of my favorite local sandwich shops is Bahn Bon Mi and the flavors are always so incredible! I was inspired to do a bowl with similar flavors: a hint of curry, bright colorful veggies, and a punch of cilantro. I call this a breakfast bowl because I cracked an egg on top but you can eat it for lunch or dinner.
