I definitely feel heavier than I did a couple months ago due to the quarantine. How about you?? I should start to shift my diet to a healthier side.
If you are looking for something light but enough to fill your appetite and soul, I've got you covered in this recipe!!
This is basically loads of vegetables + high in protein.
It's very refreshing but filling and most importantly, you don't feel guilty if you overeat this!! Haha!

<Yield> 2 servings
<Prep time> 6 minutes
<Cook time> 5 minutes
<Ingredients>
250g sliced pork
¼ lettuce
Dressing
10cm leek
1 myoga (optional)
3 tablespoons Toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons Soy sauce
1 ½ tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon ginger, finely chopped
1 clove garlic
<Optional toppings>
tomatoes
cucumber
coriander
chili oil
<Directions>
1. Finely chop the leek and myoga. Peel the ginger and finely chop it. Grate the garlic. Put everything in a bowl and add in the oyster sauce, soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
2. Bring water to a boil then lower the heat to low. Boil the pork quickly. It should take less than 1 minute. Transfer the pork to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
3. Slice the lettuce then place it on a serving plate. Pile the pork on top. Drizzle on the dressing and toss. Now it's ready to be enjoyed.
<Notes>
・You never want to overcook the pork. Boiling it for a minute over low heat is the key to keep it tender, otherwise it will get dry.
・ If you soak the lettuce in the ice bath for 2 minutes, the texture will stay fresh and crunchy.
・ You can swap out the pork for chicken or tofu.
<Storage time>
Store it in an air-tight container in the fridge for a day.
