Chinese Pork Lettuce Wraps

Some of my closest and dearest friends are those I met during the year I spent in America. One such dear friend even took me in with her family for Christmas, when I couldn't afford to fly home to be with my own. This recipe comes from a fun memory we have from that time...

We decided to go out for dinner to a well known chain of Chinese bistro restaurants, and I had fairly high expectations from the rave reviews I'd been hearing. I was excited to see the menu and pick out what I would have... but then my friend informed me that for my starter I simply had to have the lettuce wraps. No amount of explaining to her that I'm not a fan of lettuce had any effect, and soon enough I found lettuce wraps being served in front of me.
