About these pork lettuce wraps?
From China to Vietnam, Indonesia to Thailand, many popular dishes involve wrapping grilled meats in vegetables, often with herbs, noodles, and dipping sauce. This concept is rooted in the idea of balance, between hot and cool, fresh and rich, crunchy and tender.
Lettuce wraps are a modern, Western-friendly take on traditional spring rolls. Instead of pastry or rice paper, you use crisp lettuce leaves such as baby gem, butter lettuce or romain to wrap around flavourful grilled pork and a mix of toppings. They’re easier to prepare than spring rolls and endlessly customizable.
