Indian Spiced Lettuce Wraps
These Indian Spiced Lettuce Wraps are super healthy recipe and packed full of so much yumminess.
I am stepping out of my flavor comfort zone with this one by using two new-to-me ingredients… Garam Masala spice blend from Savory Spice Shop is one of them.
You can also find this spice blend in the spice section of the store.
It’s a very traditional spice blend used often in Indian cooking.
The next one is this mango chutney.
I found it at my regular grocery store and I can’t wait to come up with more dishes using both Garam Masala and mango chutney đŸ™‚
For the ground meat you have choices… ground lamb, chicken, or pork.
I am using pork, which is not typically used in Indian dishes, but I just love it.
In addition to the pork, chutney, and spice blend we also have a diced onion, shredded carrots, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and cilantro.
First set a large skillet over medium heat.
Then add some vegetable or coconut oil and the ground meat, onion, and carrots.
Cook this 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Next add the soy sauce, cilantro, garlic, ginger, garam masala, and mango chutney.
Cook 5 to 7 more minutes, stirring a few times.
As the meat and veggies were cooking, I made a sauce to drizzle over top.
Mayo, garam masala, and hot sauce in a bowl.
Just mix it together and serve with the lettuce wraps đŸ™‚
You’ll want to let the meat cool slightly before putting in the lettuce wraps.
For the lettuce I have Boston lettuce, but bibb lettuce would work too.
Drizzle the spicy mayo over top Indian Spiced Lettuce Wraps and enjoy đŸ™‚
