I stumbled on a variation of this recipe in a super old Donna Hay cookbook and of course in my true style I completely changed it lol. This is such a gorgeous dish to serve up for something light and healthy. It really reminds me of san chow bow which I adore.
Ingredients:
Mince:
- 500 grams chicken mince
- 1/3 cup finely chopped coriander – seperate stems to leaves
- 1/3 cup diced spring onions
- 1 long red chilli, deseeded and finely diced
- 2-3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
- 3 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce
Salad:
- 2 baby cos, washed and leaves separated
- 1 red capsicum, sliced into strips
- 1/2-1 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1-2 lime cup into wedges to serve
Method:
- Place a medium non stick pan on medium low heat. Add a drizzle of neutral oil to the pan
- Sauté coriander stems, spring onions, chilli and ginger for a couple of minutes until slightly softened and fragrant.
- Stir in garlic for a minute.
- Add chicken mince, turn heat up to medium high and brown off, breaking up any lumps. Season with ground white pepper.
