About


This simple Asian inspired cabbage wrap with chicken, mints and coriander leaves also need a generous spoonful of creamy sweet and toasty groundnut sauce. The sauce is simple and perfect balanced nutty and crunchy gravy. Though the sauce looks really simple but the way the flavors muddle in the crunchy and juicy wrap makes it uniquely delicious.
