Description

Turkey San Choi Bow is a delicious dish perfect for 4 servings. Begin by preparing the lettuce cups—cut the base off the iceberg lettuce and separate the leaves, then soak them in cold water to keep them crisp. In a wok over high heat, stir-fry spring onions, coriander stems, and grated ginger until softened. Add turkey mince and cook until it browns. Mix in light soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chilli oil, and toasted sesame oil for flavor. Fold in grated jicama/yam bean and carrot. Serve the flavorful stir-fry mixture in the lettuce cups, topping them with roughly chopped roasted peanuts and fresh coriander leaves for extra crunch and freshness. Don't forget to have napkins handy to catch any drips.
