Chinese Lettuce Wrap

Quote
Lettuce wraps are basically minced chicken (or pork) wrapped up in fresh iceberg lettuce leaves served with hoisin dipping sauce. Lettuce wraps are tasty and very refreshing and come complete with a crunchy texture of the cold iceberg lettuce leaf. They are healthy and great for the palate.
People love to play with their food, in this case, the assembling–and eating–of lettuce wraps are fun to many people....
For the dipping sauce, I added some ponzu sauce to the typical hoisin-chili dip to give it an extra layer of flavor. Lettuce wraps also go extremely well with sweet chili sauce, so it’s totally up to you how you want to devour these tasty lettuce wraps.
Of course, you can use more delicate types of lettuce, but I find iceberg the easiest.

I often use freshly washed lettuce leaves, and just cut-up barbequed pork and a dab of hoisin sauce in the middle of the leaf, wrap it up, and eat -- quick, easy, and delicious!

You can find lots of ways to gussy it up, for example, HERE and HERE.

One of my favorite things to eat. Easy to make, too!
