Oven Baked Beef Wrapped With Piper Sarmentosum Leaf - Vietnamese Bò Cuốn Lá Lốt - Creative Life

Organic Piper Sarmentosum leaves picked from my garden. This recipe makes 29-30 rolls, depending on the size of the leaves. Piper Sarmentosum Leaf: Lá Lốt Ingredients: *1.5 pounds ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat) *1 1/2 teaspoons chicken bouillon powder *1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder *1 teaspoon brown sugar *1 tablespoon light soy sauce *2 tablespoons minced lemongrass *4 cloves minced garlic *1 minced shallot *1 tablespoon olive oil Mix all the above ingredients thoroughly. Preheat the oven to 400°F for 10 minutes. Select large lá lốt (Piper Sarmentosum leaf) leaves with slightly long stems to make wrapping easier. Wash each leaf thoroughly and set aside. Line a baking tray with one layer of parchment paper. Wrap the rolls individually: place a leaf with the underside facing up, spoon a portion of the seasoned meat onto it, and roll it up gently, securing the roll by threading the stem through it. Brush it with a layer of olive oil and bake for 8 minutes. Garnish with scallions sautéed in olive oil and crushed roasted peanuts. Ready to serve.
