Some delicious dishes easy to make from lettuce

How to make delicious lettuce rolls

Fresh lettuce rolls are a simple and easy dish to make, but the freshness of the ingredients and the rich flavor of the dipping sauce are enough to create an irresistible taste on a dry winter day.

Ingredients (Serves 4 people)

- 200g pork belly

- 200g fresh prawns

- 500g fresh noodles

- 2 bunches of lettuce

- Scallions, garlic, herbs: basil, mint, perilla...

- Spices: soy sauce, sugar...

- 100g ground pork liver

Making

- Boil pork belly until cooked. Then wait for the meat to cool down, then slice into thin, bite-sized pieces.

- Boil water then add shrimp and steam for 5 minutes until cooked. Wait for the shrimp to cool then peel and remove the black vein on the shrimp body. Cut the shrimp in half lengthwise or leave whole depending on your preference.

- Wash green onions, remove roots and put in boiling water to cook and toughen.

- Wash lettuce and herbs and soak in salt water to ensure safety.

- Crush garlic. Roast peanuts, crush. Wash chili, cut into small pieces.

- Place the lettuce on a tray, add some vermicelli noodles in the middle, add a slice of meat, half or a whole shrimp, herbs and roll tightly. Use the blanched onion to tie it tightly.

- Prepare the dipping sauce: Put the crushed garlic in the pot and sauté until fragrant. Add the ground liver and stir-fry until cooked, add more soy sauce and sugar, season to taste.

- Finally, arrange the lettuce rolls on a plate. Pour the dipping sauce into a bowl, add the prepared chili and roasted peanuts on top. Garnish with a few sprigs of herbs or grated carrots.

Note:

- The fresher the prawns, the more delicious and firm they are. Steam the prawns until just cooked. If overcooked, the prawns will lose their characteristic sweet and delicious taste.

- You can replace the pork belly with lean shoulder meat if your family doesn't like fatty meat, but the rolls will be best when using pork belly because the lean and fat parts will keep the rolls from being dry.

- Choose fresh lettuce to make the rolls look more delicious.

When finished, the lettuce roll still retains the sweetness of steamed shrimp, the fat of meat and the cool taste of vermicelli mixed with the sweet, rich, slightly fatty taste of the thick dipping sauce.

This dish is very suitable as an appetizer, both light and stimulating to the taste buds, arousing interest in the next dishes.

You can also enjoy the aromatic lettuce rolls as a side dish to "relieve the feeling of fullness" when the table is full of greasy meat and fish dishes.
