Method
-
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Slice the zucchini into thin half-moons and chop the broccolini into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the coriander, saving a handful for garnish later.
-
Step 2: Stir-fry the Beef
Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the beef mince to the hot pan. Cook while stirring for about 5 minutes or until the beef is browned and cooked through. Use a spatula to break it apart while cooking. Ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 75°C.
Ensure the beef is cooked thoroughly; it should be browned with no pink remaining. -
Step 3: Add Vegetables
Add the sliced zucchini and broccolini to the pan with the beef. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
Do not overcook the vegetables; they should remain vibrant and slightly crunchy. -
Step 4: Incorporate Coriander
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the chopped coriander. Mix well to combine all the flavours.
-
Step 5: Assemble the Bowls
Place the washed lettuce leaves at the bottom of each serving bowl. Spoon the beef and veggie mixture over the lettuce. Garnish with additional coriander on top. Serve immediately while hot.
Tips
- Add a splash of soy sauce or oyster sauce while cooking for extra flavour.
- Serve with a side of jasmine rice or quinoa for a heartier option.
- Swap broccolini for bok choy or any other green vegetable you prefer.
