Method
2) Slice the tofu into 1cm thick slabs and lay the slices on top of kitchen towels. Use more kitchen towels to firmly pat the tofu in order to remove as much water as possible. This should take about two minutes and use about three kitchen towels. Finely chop dried tofu and set aside.
3) Heat the oil in a wok or extra-large frying-pan over medium heat. Add the ginger and spring onion whites and cook until spring onion whites are translucent and ginger is fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add beef mince and tofu and cook, stirring, until beef is opaque and just cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add reserved sauce. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring, an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Add water chestnuts and stir to incorporate.
4) Fill each lettuce leaf with the filling. Serve garnished with spring onion greens, red peppers and peanuts.
(serving size: 150g filling and 2 large or 4 small lettuce leaves)
