This thai lettuce wraps recipe is quick and easy to make. Lettuce wraps are also a fun dish to eat as a party food, either as an appetizer or the main course. Serve the filling on a platter with whole lettuce leaves on the side, and let your friends and family wrap their own. They'll love the combination of crisp, cold lettuce with the warm, flavorful filling. It's a recipe treat that's low-calorie, low-fat and very nutritious to boot. Tip: add a little water or white wine if your wok/pan gets too dry instead of more oil.
