Beef and lemongrass rolls
Author Luke Nguyen

Ingredients

  • 1 kg ground beef
  • 3 lemongrass stems white part only, finely chopped
  • 8 spring onions white part only, finely chopped
  • 1 bunch cilantro stems no leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons fine white pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • Pepper leaves

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients except for the leaves in a bowl.
  • Lay 2 leaves shiny side down, on a board with the stem of the leaf pointing towards you.
  • Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the beef mixture onto the bottom half of the leaf.
  • Work it into a sausage shape, then roll the leaf from bottom to top and place the seam flat on your bench to stop the leaf unrolling, or secure it with a toothpick.
  • Repeat this process until you have used all of the beef.
  • Cook the rolls on the barbecue over medium heat, turning to cook, for about 5 minutes, or until done.

Notes
