Asian Lettuce Wraps

I had this at a Chinese restaurant in Australia and remember them being very good, although a little messy. The idea is to use iceberg lettuce and wrap it around the meat/noodle mixture like a burrito. Unfortunately I did not have iceberg, so I improvised and just ripped up some romaine lettuce instead. Either way works!

Iceberg lettuce, leaves separated, washed and chilled in refrigerator
1 lb ground pork or ground beef (which ever you prefer)
1 tsp minced fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
1 red pepper, finely diced
1 green pepper, finely diced
2 carrots, shredded
1 medium onion, chopped
2 or 3 cups steam fried noodles
hoisin sauce

Brown meat in frying pan. Add ginger, garlic, red pepper, green pepper, carrots and onions. Fry until veggies are tender. Add the steam fried noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes longer.

Scoop meat and noodle mixture into chilled lettuce leaves and top with hoisin sauce. Wrap lettuce around mixture like a burrito and enjoy!
