Ground beef seasoned with soy and hoisin sauces, garlic, ginger, and green onions - with a bit of crunch from diced water chestnuts - is gently folded into fresh lettuce leaves to be eaten burrito style. Delicious, and great for entertaining or family style meals.

Thai Lettuce Wraps with Satay Pork Strips

Not only is this appetizer beautiful as a presentation, but it is a fun appetizer to eat. Guests get to assemble their own, picking and choosing among the condiments and sauces. For the host, everything can be done ahead, even the pork. Marinate and grill the pork early in the day, or even the day before, and refrigerate the chops. Slice the pork just before serving. The sauces can be made and placed in serving bowls several hours ahead; the condiments can be assembled on the platter and then covered and refrigerated ready to serve.

A delicious mild curry to serve with steamed or boiled rice that's relatively simple to prepare. The use of lettuce in cooked meals is also an interesting novelty for Western tastes used to having it only in salads and buffet dishes.

An amazingly simple and fast soup for those times when there isn't a lot of time! Browned ground beef with sesame seeds in a consomme broth garnished with bean sprouts, green onions, red bell pepper, and mushrooms. Great with egg rolls on the side for a complete meal.

Very quick to make with inexpensive ingredients. Can be made low fat by substituting ground turkey and baked ramen noodles, and by omitting oil.
