Method

1

Mince garlic and shallot. Juice limes. Chop mint, cilantro, and green onion. Prepare lettuce leaves by gently separating and chilling.

2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground meat and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until no pink remains and meat is lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes.

3

Add minced garlic and shallot to the cooked meat; stir constantly for 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Remove from heat. Pour in fish sauce and lime juice; add red chili pepper. Toss until evenly coated. Let cool for 2 minutes.

5

Fold in fresh mint, cilantro, and green onion just before serving, preserving the herbaceous texture.

6

Spoon warm meat mixture onto chilled lettuce leaves. Arrange cucumber slices alongside. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
