"This is a weeknight favourite, packed with so much flavour, and it comes together effortlessly. I love the lettuce wraps, adding a fresh crispness to the dish (and any excuse to get my hands involved). The pork stir-fry is also great the next day." – Tom Walton

2 tbs fish sauce
2 tbs oyster sauce
2 tbs brown sugar
2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 tbs finely grated fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 stalk lemongrass, white part only, finely grated

Combine the fish sauce, oyster sauce and brown sugar in a small bowl.

Heat the oil in a large frypan over medium-high heat. Add the ginger, garlic and lemongrass and stir-fry for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the pork mince and stir-fry to break up mince for 4-5 minutes, until browned. Add the vegetables and stir-fry for 1 minute.
