Minced Pork Wrapped in Lettuce

1. Prepare 500g of lean ground pork.
2. In a saucepan bring to a boil 1 cup of chicken stock, ½ cup oyster sauce, 3 tsp brown sugar, a few drops of sesame oil, ¼ tsp salt and thicken with 2 tsp cornstarch diluted in 4 tsp water. Set aside.
3. In a wok or skillet sauté in 2 tsp oil 1 large onion (minced) and 3 cloves garlic (minced). Do not burn the garlic.
4. Once onion is translucent add the pork and sauté until fat is rendered and remove excess oils.
5. Add half of the sauce and continue to cook until the pork begins to dry.
6. Add 1 cup of fresh Shiitake Mushrooms (chopped) and add the remaining sauce.
7. Just before serving add 1 large Red Bell Pepper (minced), 1 block silken tofu (diced) and 1 cup green spring onions (chopped).
8. Sprinkle some Red Pepper flakes to add some heat if you desire.

Serve with iceberg lettuce leaves, preferable already triple washed, and encourage your guests to stuff the lettuce leaves with the pork mix and wrap before eating. For it to resemble Ma-bo-Tofu you may add Plum sauce for Chinese Style or Miso for Japanese Style.
