instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the cucumber lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise. Cut the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Cut off and discard the stems of the peppers; remove the cores. Halve lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Cut off and discard the root end of the lettuce; separate the leaves. Roughly chop the peanuts. In a bowl, whisk together the peanut butter spread, soy glaze, half the vinegar, 2 teaspoons of water, and as much of the sambal oelek as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be.
2
Marinate the cucumber
In a bowl, combine the sliced cucumber and remaining vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
3
Cook the pork
Meanwhile, in a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the pork; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 6 to 7 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add 1/4 of the sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the pork is coated and cooked through. Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a large bowl.
4
Cook the vegetables
In the pan of reserved fond, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the mushroom pieces in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the chopped garlic and sliced peppers; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Turn off the heat.
5
Make the filling & serve your dish
Add the cooked vegetables to the bowl of cooked pork; stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the lettuce leaves, filling, remaining sauce, marinated cucumber (discarding any liquid) and chopped peanuts separately. Assemble each cup using 2 lettuce leaves. Enjoy!
