Lettuce Wraps
One of my favorite recipes is Lettuce Wraps. My friend Merrigay gave it to me.
Ingredients:
Green onion
Yellow onion
Yellow Pepper
Green Pepper
Red Pepper
( I use whatever onion and pepper or peppers I have on hand...and to me they have always tasted good) Diced...exact amounts I know not...whatever looks good
1 lb hamburger
In a seperate bowl mix: 2Tablespoons(or more)...I usually use 3 to 4 of Soy Sauce; 1 tsp. cornstarch; 1/2 tsp. salt; 1/4 tsp. pepper; 4 tsp. sugar.
Add mix and peppers and onions to the hamburger.
When you have it mixed, leave it on the counter until you are ready to fry it.
Fry the mixture
Serve it with cooked rice
Place the rice and mixture in lettuce. (I choose whatever lettuce looks good:))
Enjoy
For whatever reasons I have been told that this recipe does not double well.
Anyways, it is an easy and yummy recipe for me.
Have a great week!

Sweet and Sour Chicken
3/4 c. sugar
1/2 c. vinegar (someone told me apple cider was better than white)
1/2 c. chicken broth
3 1/2 Tbsp. ketchup
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
3 lb. chicken (boneless/skinless), cut into strips
Garlic salt
Cornstarch
2 beaten eggs
In saucepan, heat and dissolve first 5 ingredients. Sprinkle chicken with garlic salt, then dip each piece in cornstarch, then beaten eggs. Fry chicken in oil until browned. Put chicken in 9x13 inch casserole dish and pour liquid mixture over the top. Bake at 325ยบ for 1 hour. Turn chicken over on the 1/2 hour. Serve on top of white rice.
*Note- We double the sauce part because we like some extra for our rice.
Hopefully this helps some. Let me know how it turns out!

Hi : the only thing I really make asian is sushi rolls, like the california roll. You need nori (seaweed Paper) sweetened rice and the veggies and fish that go inside. You also need the bamboo mats to roll it in .Do you like those? You can get the directions off the internet. They are so yummy , my kids love them especially with lots of wasabi and pickled ginger. Other than that I just love the asian peanut dressing and put it on salads or marinade chicken in it and serve with rice.
