- If making your own San choy bow sauce, mix together the sauce ingredients in a bowl.
- Heat the frypan (or wok) to a high temp and add Pork mince, break up with a wooden spoon. Don’t keep stirring and leave it till it’s brown and crunchy. Once done, give it one final stir..
- Add the Onion, Garlic and Ginger and stir on high flame for a minute. Make sure the Pork mince is all broken up.
- Next, add San Choi Bow sauce, a handful of Bean Sprouts and Coleslaw mix. Give it a good mix. You don’t want to cook this too much. Stir until the Coleslaw ix has softened and the sauce has reduced..
- Turn the heat off.
- Get the lettuce ready by cutting the bottom a break off the whole leavec cups for the San Choi Bow mix.
- Now, chop some Red Chilli for garnish and keep it aside. Stir it in the Lime juice in the San Choi Bow mix.
