San Choy Bow for Dinner!

I love San Choy Bow. But I’ve never cooked it before, so decided last night was the night to give it a go!

Get This:

• 500g chicken or beef mince, or tofu. Make sure it’s organic, free range, hormone free!
• 3 gloves garlic, minced
• 2-3cm ginger, grated
• 3 shallots, sliced
• 1 chilli, minced
• 1 zucchini, grated
• 1 carrot, grated
• 1/2 tomato, diced
• 5 mushrooms, diced
• 1 small capsicum, diced
• 1 egg
• 2 tbs fish sauce
• 2 tbs tamari
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1c bean sprouts
• 1/2 c coriander, finely chopped
• Leaves of iceberg lettuce, carefully removed from head

Do This:

• On medium-high heat, stir fry the mince until cooked through
• Move to the side of the pan, stir fry ginger, garlic, shallots and chilli for 1 minute
• Mix through mince
• Mix through zucchini, carrot, tomato, mushrooms, capsicum.
• Immediately add fish sauce, tamari and lime juice, and stif fry veg and mince for 3-4 minutes
• Move mince mixture to the edge of the pan, crack egg into middle. Quickly break up yolk and stir fry then mix in with other ingredients.
• Add bean sprouts and coriander and stir fry briefly to mix then remove from heat
• Take lettuce ‘wraps’ and place on plates, spoon mince and vegetables into the lettuce leaves. Wrap, eat and enjoy!

This is a simple recipe that’s easy to stir fry together, great for a quick weeknight meal, but you still get lots of vegetables in!

Make sure when you cook meat (especially mince) that it’s free range, organic and hormone free.
