Comments:
I used Savoy cabbage but lettuce leaves from Boston lettuce would work great as well.
Serving Suggestions:
Ingredients:
2 1/2 tsp. dark sesame oil, divided
2 tsp. minced peeled fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ground sirloin
1 tbs. sugar
2 tbs. fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tbs. fish sauce
1 tbs. water
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
1/2 cup vertically sliced red onion
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
8 large green cabbage leaves
2 tbs. finely chopped unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts

Instructions:
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add ginger and garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add beef; cook 5 minutes or until browned, stirring to crumble.

Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil, sugar, and next 4 ingredients (through pepper) in a large bowl. Add beef mixture, onion, and cilantro; toss well. Place 2 cabbage leaves on each of 4 plates; divide beef mixture evenly among leaves. Top each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons peanuts.
