This is a great recipe. I have been thinking about making it into a Thai Meatloaf.
Thai Turkey Bundles
1/4 c. lemon juice
3 tbsp. fish sauce
1 tbsp. snipped fresh cilantro
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. soy sauce
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp. toasted sesame oil (I use regular sesame oil)
1 beaten egg
1/2 c. coarsely chopped water chestnuts
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
1 green onion finely chopped (I like lots of onion so I used 1 bunch.)
1 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. lemon juice
2 tsp. grated gingerroot
1/2 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. chili oil
1/4 tsp. salt (optional)
1 1/2 lbs. ground turkey
12 small savoy cabbage leaves or small leaf lettuce leaves
For dipping sauce, stir together 1/4 c. lemon juice, fish sauce, cilantro, 2 tsp. sugar, 1 tsp. soy sauce, crushed red pepper, and sesame oil in small mixing bowl. Set aside.
Combine egg, water chestnuts, bread crumbs, green onion, 1 tbsp. soy sauce, 1 tbsp. lemon juice, gingerroot, 1/2 tsp. sugar, chili oil and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add ground turkey and mix well. Shape mixture into twelve 4x1 1/2x3/4-inch loaves.
Cook loaves on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 14 to 18 minutes or until juices run clear, turning carefully once halfway through grilling time.
To serve, wrap each loaf in a savoy cabbage leaf. Serve with dipping sauce. Makes 6 servings.
