Ingredients

Yum Yum Sauce

For The Lettuce Wraps

  • 1 Recipe Vegan Minced "Pork" (link in notes)*
  • 1 Head Butter or Bibb lettuce
  • Chives and sesame seeds for topping

Instructions

  • To prep the lettuce wraps, make the yum yum sauce. Whisk together the vegan mayo, tomato paste, rice wine vinegar, mirin, sugar, paprika and garlic powder.
  • Then add the melted butter and whisk.
  • Now, thin out with water. Start with 2 tablespoons of water and add another tablespoon if needed. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings. Put the yum yum sauce in the fridge and let chill, it will develop flavor, for at least 4 to 6 hours.
  • Now make a batch of minced "pork", it also needs to marinate for 4 to 6 hours.
  • When ready to make the lettuce wraps or prep the wraps, cook the minced "pork" according to the directions.
  • Let the "pork" cool a bit, then either prep for the week, by adding some "pork" to one section of a container, then yum yum sauce to another section and several pieces of lettuce in another section. Keep in the fridge until ready to eat.
  • If eating immediately, put a few tablespoons of the minced "pork" into a lettuce leaf, drizzle the yum yum sauce on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds. Then fold the lettuce up and eat.
