2teaspoonsred chile pasteor roasted red chile paste is great too!
2Tablespoonsred onion, sliced thinly then halved
½ cupcarrots,shredded
2Tablespoonsfresh ginger root,cut into small matchsticks
¼cup cocktail peanuts
2Tablespoonsfresh cilantro,chopped
Lettuce(choose Romaine as it has more health benefits than iceberg or cabbage leaves)
Garnish: thinly sliced red bell peppers (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet, cook pork and water until pork is thoroughly cooked. Make sure to break up as you are cooking it.
Remove from heat and add next 3 ingredients. Stir and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients except for lettuce leaves. Stir.
To plate, lay a large lettuce leaf on each of 4 plates. Divide salad between plates and serve. I like to add another topping of peanuts to the salad as garnish.
You can serve with rice on the side or just as it is. Try rolling the salad in the lettuce leaves and serve with additional lettuce leaves for an even healthier meal.
