SPICY PORK LETTUCE WRAPS



Spicy Pork Lettuce Wraps image

These lettuce cups filled with spicy ground pork take inspiration from Larb. Found in several Southeast Asian countries, Larb usually features seasoned ground meat served with sticky rice or lettuce cups, topped with fresh vegetables and herbs. Toasted rice powder is typically mixed into the seasoning for some crunch and to help thicken the dressing. Katie opts for ground peanuts instead to achieve a similar texture and nutty flavor. These can also be made with ground chicken, duck, turkey, or crumbled tofu in place of the ground pork. Fresh and flavorful, these lettuce cups are super easy to make at home any night of the week.

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (from about 1/2-inch piece)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 medium carrot, grated or julienned
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
Juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground pork
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 cloves garlic, minced
One 1 1/2-inch piece ginger, peeled and finely grated (about 1 tablespoon)

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 head Bibb, butter or iceberg lettuce, separated into leaves
Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
Fresh mint leaves, for serving
1/2 cup roasted salted peanuts, chopped

Steps:

Cook the pork, breaking it up with the back of your spoon until it browns and is no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes, salt, garlic, ginger and shallots. Cook until they are aromatic and incorporated, another minute. Add the hoisin and stir to combine, then add the soy sauce. Cook until the pork is sticky and glazed, about 3 minutes.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Wraps and Rolls

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 Boston Bibb or butter lettuce leaves
1 pound lean ground beef
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 large onion, chopped
¼ cup hoisin sauce
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons minced pickled ginger
1 dash Asian chile pepper sauce, or to taste
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and finely chopped
1 bunch green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons Asian (dark) sesame oil

Steps:

  • Rinse whole lettuce leaves and pat dry, being careful not tear them. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef and cooking oil in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease; transfer beef to a bowl. Cook and stir onion in the same skillet used for beef until slightly tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir hoisin sauce, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and chile pepper sauce into onions. Add water chestnuts, green onions, sesame oil, and cooked beef; cook and stir until the onions just begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality hoisin sauce. A good hoisin sauce will be thick, flavorful, and slightly sweet. Look for a brand that uses real Chinese spices, such as star anise and cloves.
  • Don't overcook the pork. The pork should be cooked through, but it should not be dry. Overcooked pork will be tough and chewy.
  • Use fresh lettuce leaves. Wilted or brown lettuce leaves will not hold up well to the hoisin sauce and pork. Choose crisp, green lettuce leaves that are free of blemishes.
  • Serve the lettuce wraps immediately. Hoisin pork lettuce wraps are best served fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. When you're ready to serve, reheat the pork in a skillet over medium heat until it is warmed through.

Conclusion:

Hoisin pork lettuce wraps are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that everyone will enjoy. These lettuce wraps are also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. The lettuce leaves are packed with nutrients, and the hoisin sauce is a good source of antioxidants. So, next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious meal, give these hoisin pork lettuce wraps a try.
