Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground pork or ground chicken

  • 1 package Thai Larb seasoning powder

  • 2 tablespoon fish sauce

  • 1 to 2 tablespoon of lime juice

  • 1 tablespoon crush chili or less up to you

  • 1 tablespoon sugar

  • 2 shallots sliced thin

  • 1/2 red bell pepper slice thin

  • 3 kaffir lime leaves sliced very thin

  • 1/2 cup water

  • Garnish with
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

  • 1/4 cup chopped mints

  • Any kind of lettuce to wrap the meat mixture

Directions

  • 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

Notes

  • 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.
