Ingredients
- 400g beef mince
- 4tbs vegetable oil
- 3 garlic cloves, grated
- 1 thumb-size piece of ginger, peeled and grated
- 1tbs dried chilli flakes
- 1½tbs dark soy sauce
- 2tbs oyster sauce
- 8 iceberg lettuce cups
- Zest of half a lime
- 3 spring onions, sliced, for garnish
- 1 red chilli, sliced, for garnish
- Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish
- Heat a nonstick pan over a high heat. Add the beef mince and break it up using a wooden spoon so that it browns all over. It is very important to let the mince sit and caramelise, so don’t keep moving it.
- Once browned and caramelised, make a well in the centre of the mince and add the oil, garlic, ginger and chilli flakes. Cook for a few minutes until the garlic turns golden, then stir it into the mince.
- Reduce the heat slightly, then add the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Mix to coat the beef mince and cook for a further minute until it becomes sticky.
- Turn off the heat completely, then spoon the mix into the lettuce cups. Garnish with the lime zest, spring onions, red chilli and coriander leaves.
