Ingredients

  • 1clove garlic
  • 1pcs carrot
  • 1pcs spring onion
  • 1pcs pak choy
  • 1pcs cos lettuce
  • 50g oyster sauce
  • 2g chilli flakes
  • 300g lean pork mince
  • 40g roasted cashews
  • 5g toasted sesame seeds
  • 10ml white vinegar
  • 5ml soy sauce
  • 15ml neutral-flavoured oil

Method

  1. Step 1 — Start prep
    Crush or finely chop the garlic. Shred the carrot using a julienne peeler or coarsely grate with a box grater. Thinly slice the spring onion on an angle.
  2. Step 2 — Finish prep
    Thinly slice the pak choy, keeping the stems and leaves separate. Trim the lettuce, then separate the leaves.
  3. Step 3 — Make sauce
    Put the oyster sauce, 2 tsp white vinegar, 1 tsp soy sauce, 60ml (¼ cup) water and a pinch of chilli flakes* (if preferred, omit the chilli when cooking and serve it at the table) in a bowl and stir to combine.
  4. Step 4 — Cook mince
    Heat 1 tbs oil in a large deep frypan over high heat. Cook the pork mince, breaking up the lumps with a spoon, for 3-4 mins until browned.
  5. Step 5 — Cook vegetables
    Add the garlic, carrot and pak choy stems to the mince and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 mins or until the carrot is starting to soften.
  6. Step 6 — Get ready to serve
    Add the sauce and pak choy leaves to the mince mixture and bring to the boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 mins or until slightly reduced. Stir in the cashews. Fill the lettuce cups with the pork mixture. Scatter with the spring onion and sesame seeds to serve.
