¼ c. cilantro (chopped)
¼ tsp Tamarind (Mexican fruit) coolaid

Larbgai Sauce:

2 tbsp. water
2 tbsp. lime juice
1/8 tsp. Lemon zest

1/2 c chopped water chestnuts
Meat mixture that was previously set aside

Haylee’s Note:
Again, another Heather recipe. Sooo yummy!! I really like hoisen sauce so when I do the actual wrap I like to put the hoisen straight on. Also, when making the sauce, I would only do ¼ c. of the soy sauce. Thanks Heather for yet another winner!
