Method:
- In a large bowl, mix the pork, shallots, garlic, lemon grass, cornflour, herbs & fish sauce. Shape into approximately 18-20 balls
- Thread onto large metal skewers (or individual wooden one’s, soaked in water for 20 minutes to avoid burning). Barbecue or grill for 5-6 minutes, turning now & again until they are just cooked through.
- Brush with 2 tbsp of the chilli sauce and cook for a couple of minutes until more lightly caramelised.
- Remove from the skewers & serve each of the kofte in one of the little gem lettuce leaves, spooned over with a little more chilli sauce, plus extra for dipping, and scattered with the spring onion, chilli & coriander.
