I enjoy meat wrapped in lettuce. I am not sure if it is the taste or if it is the novelty of wrapping the meat before munching on it. If you are not a big fan of pork, you can use chicken or even duck meat. You can also add more vegetables or crispy noodles if you want.

 

Ingredients:

1/3 cup oyster sauce

1 tablespoon dry sherry

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1 lb. pork loin, cut into small cubes

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 carrot, chopped

1/2 teaspoon Oriental sesame oil

1 tablespoon chives, chopped

Iceberg lettuce leaves

 

In a skillet over medium flame, heat the oil and sauté the onions until it becomes translucent. Add the garlic and fry it until it is fragrant or light brown.

Dredge the pork in cornstarch and stir-fry it along with the carrots. Add the sherry and oyster sauce. Cook for another 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked and the carrots are tender. Transfer the pork on a platter and sprinkle with chives. Serve with lettuce.
