Instructions
- For the sauce: Add all the sauce ingredients into a small bowl and stir to mix well.
- To make the filling: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the ground pork and spread into an even layer. Cook without touching until the bottom is browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the pork and chop into smaller pieces. Cook until the other side turns golden. Move the pork to one side of the pan.
- Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil, onion, garlic and ginger to the other side of the pan. Stir and cook for 2 minutes. Then mix everything together.
- Add the water chestnut and the red pepper. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes, until the vegetables soften. Transfer everything to a large bowl.
- To serve and eat: Add a spoonful of the pork filling onto a lettuce leaf. Add some roasted peanuts and green onions. Drizzle a bit of chili garlic sauce or your favorite hot sauce for a spicy taste, if desired. Enjoy as an appetizer.
