Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 cup Thai basil leaves
- Rice paper wraps
- Lettuce leaves (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s browned for about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic, soy sauce, and oyster sauce, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes. Stir in the Thai basil leaves until wilted.
- Prepare the Rice Paper Wraps: Soak rice paper wraps in warm water until soft and pliable, about 10-15 seconds.

Notes
For a spicy version, mix in minced chili peppers while cooking. Can be made vegan by substituting ground beef with plant-based meat.
