• 0.88 lb chicken mince (from thigh) (400g) I like The Meat Club's chicken mince because it's from 100% cage-free Australian chicken, with NO growth hormones, and is blended from chicken thigh. Use my affiliate code "TMC-AFF-GREEDY" for $15 off your order!
• 4 fresh lemongrass stalks Peel away the tough outer layers, and cut off the tougher, less flavorful top bit. Pound (with the back of a knife or rolling pin, to release the flavor) then mince (finely) the soft white inner stems at the bottom. The outer layers/ top bit can be used to make lemongrass tea, lemongrass syrup, or lemongrass oil. Divide into 2 equal portions (half will be used for the marinade and half for the stir-fry.)
• 4 fresh garlic cloves peeled, and minced. please do not use garlic powder if you want authentic Asian flavor Divide into 2 equal portions (half will be used for the marinade and half for the stir-fry.)
• 1 shallot peeled, and minced. You can substitute with ⅛ of a red onion
• 1 Tablespoon fish sauce I have tested with ¾ Tablespoon to be healthy but the dish won't be as more-ish, unfortunatley.
• 1 Tablespoon dark soy sauce you can use kicap manis, or sweet soy sauce as a substitute. If you do so, you may need to reduce the amount of sugar added
• 1 Tablespoon brown sugar If you can get palm sugar, please do use it, if not brown sugar, or even white sugar in a pinch, will work fine
• 1 fresh lime Use the juice of 1 lime. You can keep the lime zest for another recipe.
• 2 fresh chili peppers You can use large chilies or small Thai bird's eye chili but note the latter is pretty spicy, so it depends on your heat tolerance. I tend to mix 1 large with 1 small chili. Either way, try to mix some red and some green chili, to brighten up the plate. Do NOT touch your eyes after handling chilies- especially the seeds- as they will BURN.
• 1-2 Tablespoons neutral vegetable oil Please do not use olive oil if you want the chicken recipe to taste Asian
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed into 2 teaspoons of water to form a slurry

Suggested Garnishes

• 4 Tablespoons Grated Peanuts
• 1 fresh lime
• 1 bunch fresh coriander leaf or spring onions (if coriander tastes like soap to you.)
• 2 red chilies sliced thinly. Omit if can't take spicy food.

For the Wrap

• 2 lettuce Washed
