This dish is very popular and the mixture is usually made with Pork OR Chicken Mince. I made this Vegan version for my Vegan friends. By adding a variety of ingredients, you can create a great flavour. If you ran out of Lettuce, you can enjoy it with freshly cooked rice, too.

3

Heat Sesame Oil in a frying pan over medium heat, cook Vegetables. When soft, add crumbled Tofu and the sauce. Mix well and cook for 1-2 minutes until combined well.
