Ssamjang Beef Lettuce Cups
with Corn Fried Rice
Crunchy and green, lettuce cups are a fun way to involve a bit of veg into dinner. Their job is to hold all the ssamjang beef and veggies together. Doll out a helping of charred corn fried rice to the plate and this is one fun dinner that we can’t get enough of.

Instructions
• Boil the kettle. • Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add jasmine rice, chicken-style stock powder and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 10 minutes. • Drain, rinse with warm water and set aside.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop Asian greens. Finely chop garlic. • Trim the end of cos lettuce, then separate the leaves. Drain the sweetcorn. • In a small bowl, combine ssamjang paste, oyster sauce, the sesame oil, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar and a splash of water.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add the Asian greens and 1/2 the garlic and cook until fragrant and slightly wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat, then add ssamjang sauce mixture and stir to combine. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to high heat. Cook sweetcorn until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are “popping” out.
• Push corn to one side of the pan, then add a drizzle of olive oil to empty side. Crack egg into pan and scramble until cooked through, 1 minute. • Add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add soy sauce mix and cook until slightly reduced, 30 seconds. • Add cooked rice and stir until warmed through, 1-2 minutes.
• Spoon some ssamjang beef into each lettuce cup and divide between plates. • Serve with sweetcorn fried rice. Enjoy!
