Directions to make Spicy Thai minced Pork Larb
- In fry pan or pot mix ground pork with ½ cup of water break the meat to small pieces and bring to a boil to cook the pork. (The water makes the meat softer). When the meat is done drain the water out.
- Put the meat back on low heat and add Lab seasoning powder, shallots, kaffir lime leaves, fish sauce, lime juice, chili, bell pepper, and sugar
- Stir the mixture for 2 minutes till the shallots are soft. Turn the heat off
- Let the meat mixture cool down a bit before adding cilantro, and mints
- Spoon the mixture into lettuce leaf and serve as lettuce wrap with peanut sauce drizzle over it
Thai serve their Lab with sticky rice and fresh crunchy vegetables, but for me it is just as easy to put in lettuce wrap style.
Thank you and enjoy it
