Sang Choy Bao (生菜包)

When I was little, my mum would make fried rice and then cut some ice berg lettuce. We love Sang Choy, or iceberg lettuce, especially when we can put fried rice into them and eat them like a ‘bao’, or dumpling.
In the western world, we are more familiar with the same lettuce wrapped in meat. The most common being a minced meat. So here’s the Sang Choy Bao my kids love, in Thai larb.
