Instructions

1. Prep: Wash and dry romaine leaves. Thinly slice cabbage. Dice onion. Mince garlic (and grate ginger if using).
2. Quick cabbage crunch: Toss cabbage with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lime (or 1 tsp vinegar). Let sit while you cook the lamb; it will soften slightly and get snappy-bright.
3. Cook lamb (stove): Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add onion and a pinch of salt; cook 3–4 minutes until starting to brown. Add garlic (and ginger) and cook 30 seconds.
4. Spice it up: Add ground lamb, cumin, paprika/chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook 8–10 minutes, breaking up meat, until browned and cooked through. If it looks dry, splash in 2–3 tbsp water to make it juicy; taste and adjust seasoning.
5. Build lettuce wraps: Fill romaine leaves with lamb, top with cabbage crunch, and add avocado slices. Add another squeeze of lime/vinegar if you like it punchy.
6. Serve: Make 2 generous plates (about 2–3 wraps per person) and pile extra cabbage on the side.
