Lemongrass Pork Lettuce Cup is a deconstructed version of the Vietnamese Pork and Rice Noodle Salad combined with Asian Lettuce Wraps where he features pork patties instead of minced meat. It was extremely easy to make and the kids loved them. I switched a couple of ingredients out with what I had available - namely scallions with cilantro and the vermicelli noodles with Japanese shirataki noodles instead.
