“San Choy Bau”
Ingredients:
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 garlic cloves
1 spring onion
500g pork mince
1 carrot (grated)
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 iceberg lettuce
1 tin water chestnuts (chopped)- water chestnuts are an aquatic tuber, therefore are not considered a nut.
1 tin baby corn (chopped)
Method:
Step 1:
Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat and add garlic and spring onion, cook for 2-3 minutes whilst stirring until softened.
Add pork, stirring to break up any clumps, until brown and cooked. Drain off any liquid.
Step 2:
Reduce heat, add carrot, spring onion, chest nuts and baby corn and cook for 5 minutes. Cover with a lid and leave on low for a further 2 minutes. Stir in oyster sauce.
Allow mixture to cool a little.
Step 3: Rinse and trim the base from the lettuce. Discard older outer leaves. Separate whole leaves from the lettuce head and trim with scissors to form cups.
Step 4: Put pork mixture in middle of table and let everyone help themselves to fill their lettuce leaf cups.
Suggestion-( Add your favourite vegetables to extend the flavour)
By adding the water chestnuts and baby corn it gives it that extra texture and flavour!
