Oriental Lettus Wraps

Many of you already have this recipe, but for those who enjoy lettuce wraps and don't yet have the recipe, here it is:

While Browning up whatever meat you like (here, I used ground beef-let's say about a pound of it), add thinly sliced carrots, onions, and whatever other veggies you like. Tip is to slice them long wise. (zucchinis, water chestnuts, green/color peppers work great also--it's a great "left-over" meal--just use whatever is in your fridge!)

Add soy sauce (start with 1/3C)

Add salt and pepper

Add 2-3 TBSP. sugar (yes, sugar)

Mirin if you have it-(1-2tsp)

add chopped peanuts and chili pepper is optional

Everything is just eyeballed--so make it once and since it's very forgiving, you can always fix it by adding more sugar or soy sauce or even meat if it's bad! lol But really, it's sooo simple you'll wonder how you ever paid more than a few dollars for this at any restaurants! Asian cuisine is a lot of "soy sauce and sugar" combination-you'll know why after you make this! :)

Serve over hot rice and washed lettuce, eat like a Taco!
