  • 250 g lean minced pork
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice
  • 2 tsp. brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons coarse coconut flakes
  • 1 medium pink grapefruit

Preparation:

  1. Combine fish sauce, lime juice and brown sugar in a small bowl.

    Lightly toast the coconut in a frying pan over medium heat and let cool. Using a sharp knife, peel the grapefruit and cut it into segments, discarding the bitter white pith. Combine it in a bowl with the coconut, peanuts, mint, chili sauce, and green onions.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pork and cook, stirring, for 4-5 minutes (before browning). Transfer the pork to a bowl and drain any excess fat from the pan.
  3. Increase the heat to high, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, then add the ginger and red onion. Cook until softened (about 1 minute). Add the onion mixture to the meat, pour in the fish sauce mixture, and stir gently.

    Wrap spiced ground pork in romaine lettuce leaves and top with grapefruit-coconut salad.
