So this isn't really a classic kiddies dish, but my two LOVE it. They wolf down every last morsel and I usually end up topping them up with leftovers from my plate. Here's my recipe:
Small cos or iceberg lettuce for cups
Udon noodles (optional. I don't have the noodles but hubby & the girls like them)
500g beef, turkey or chicken mince
1/2 cup celery, finely diced
1 cup carrot, diced
1/2 cup frozen peas (cooked as per packet instructions)
1/2 cup spring onions
2cm piece of ginger (minced)
1 garlic clove (minced)
2 tbsp tamari (or soy sauce if you can't get tamari)
2 tbsp mirin
1 tsp fish sauce
Coriander for garnish
Optional extras:
Beansprouts
Ground peanuts for topping
Water chestnuts
Fry onion. ginger, celery & carrot for 5 minutes.
Add mince and fry until browned.
Add peas & garlic & fry for another minute
Add sauces and fry for another few minutes.
Once heated through either serve with lettuce cups or on top of noodles.
This is such a simple dish and so tasty. I used to make it with oyster sauce & sweet soy sauce, but really it is just as nice with the tamari & mirin and you are using much more natural ingredients without all the added sugar. Give it a bash - you will love it!!
