Instructions
- In a bowl combine carrots, radishes, cucumber, rice vinegar and sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Let the mixture sit while you make the remaining components.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet to a medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of sesame oil. When the oil is hot, add the pork. Break pork up with a wooden spoon and then cook until browned and crispy, about 7-8 minutes.
- While the pork browns, add the soy sauce, fish sauce, teaspoon of sriracha (or more if you like spice), and brown sugar to a small bowl. Mix until combined. Add the mayo, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil, 1 1/4 teaspoons sriracha, and 1 teaspoon rice vinegar to another small bowl. Miix until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- When the pork is crisp and brown, add in the sauce. Toss to coat and cook another 1-2 mintues until thickened.
- Spoon the pork mixture into each lettuce "bowl." Top with pickled veggies and drizzle some mayo on top. Enjoy!
