Cook the rice to pack instructions. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the pork mince and fry for 7-8 mins until starting to brown and caramelise. Stir in the ginger, chilli, garlic and lemongrass purée and continue to cook for 3 mins. Stir in the fish sauce and honey. Remove from the heat and add the cooked rice; mix well.

Lay the salad leaves on a platter and spoon the mince and rice mixture into the lettuce cups. Sprinkle with the chilli, lime zest, coriander and spring onion. Serve with the lime wedges.
