San Choy Bow Recipe
How to make San Choy Bow
Method:
- Make your own San Choy Bow sauce. Mix the white wine vinegar, oyster sauce, kecap manis, soy sauce and white sugar sauce ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the frypan (or wok) to a high temperature and add pork mince. Break up with a wooden spoon. Don’t keep stirring – leave it until it’s a little brown and crunchy. Once done, give it one final stir.
- Add the onion, garlic and ginger then stir on high heat for a minute. Make sure the pork mince is all broken up.
- Next, add San Choy Bow sauce, a handful of bean sprouts and coleslaw mix. Give it a good mix. You don’t want to cook this too much. Stir until the coleslaw has softened and the sauce has reduced. Turn the heat off.
- Get the lettuce ready by cutting the bottom off then tear off the whole leave cups for the San Choy Bow mix.
- Now, chop some red chilli (optional) for garnish and keep it aside. Stir it in the lime juice and then into the San Choy Bow mix.
- Serve inside baby gem lettuce cups with optional toppings, depending what you have on hand to garnish. I have used salted peanuts, crispy noodles and some spicy red chilli!
