Thai Lettuce Wraps With Beef And Fresh Basil Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Crisp, crunchy, savory, with just the right amount of spice, these fresh thai lettuce wraps make dinner into something you'll look forward to. They're easy to make and healthy too. Just get yourself a head of fresh lettuce, preferably some with wide, large leaves, and then stir-fry the filling. For casual everyday eating, serve it like this: put the whole wok on a pot-holder in the center of the table (serving it in the wok keeps the filling hot). Set individual leaves on a plate beside it. Add a small bowl of chopped cashews as the topping. Then tell your loved ones to put their own wraps together. And if you have anyone at your table who loves it extra spicy, another side dish is thai chili sauce (completely optional). Now everyone wrap up and enjoy
