Ingredients

1 cup quinoa, rinsed, drained
1 tablespoon olive oil
500g lean pork mince
1 fresh long red chilli, seeded, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 stick lemongrass, white part only, finely chopped
2 bunches broccolini, trimmed, cut into 4cm lengths or 4 cups small broccoli florets
1 large carrot, peeled, grated
1 medium red capsicum, deseeded, diced
2 cups bean sprouts
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
8 large iceberg lettuce leaves, to serve

Place quinoa and 1 cup water in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 12–15 minutes, or until quinoa is al dente.
Meanwhile, heat half the oil in a wok over high heat. Add mince and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes, or until browned. Transfer to a bowl.
Return wok to high heat and add remaining oil. Stir-fry chilli, garlic and lemongrass for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add broccolini, carrot and capsicum and stir-fry for 2 minutes, or until just tender.
Add quinoa, half the bean sprouts and mince to wok. Add hoisin sauce and stir-fry until heated through.
Serve pork mixture in lettuce leaves topped with remaining bean sprouts.
