Dinner time has always been my favorite part since I was little. My parents always made us sit together every night and had dinner together. No matter how busy my parents were, they always made time to have dinner together, and I am so thankful for that. On weekends, we usually tried out new restaurants or had something fun, like shabu-shabu, sukiyaki, or even steaks. That tradition is still happening today, at my own place, my own family. What about you? Any fun family dinner time?
Turkey Miso Lettuce Wrap
Ingredients:
- 1 head butter leaf lettuce
- 1lb ground turkey
- 4 tsp light soy sauce
- 3 tsp mirin
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 2 tsp sake
- 2 tbs oil
Miso sauce:
- 1-2 tbs soybean white miso paste
- 3 tsp lemon juice
- 5 tbs water
- 3 tsp toasted sesame seeds
Garnish:
- Pickled ginger
- Green onion
Directions:
- Remove the large outer leaves of each head of lettuce and take the smaller leaves from the center of each head of lettuce. Put them in a large bowl of ice water to help crisp up the lettuce.

- In a hot pan, add 2 tbs oil over medium high heat. Add the garlic and turkey and cook for 4 minutes. Add the soy sauce, mirin, and sake, and cook until they’re golden brown in color. Set aside.

- To make the miso sauce: combine all the ingredients. Add the miso lightly since it is very salty.

- To serve: drain and pat dry the lettuce leaves off. Add a mound of meat, and then a dollop of miso sauce. Garnish with pickled ginger and green onion.







I just had a bowl of Bircher Müsli but looking at those pictures make me hungry.
Love the look of this – so nice, fresh and healthy!
