Heat a large frying pan or wok. Mix together the garlic, salt,  pepper,
lime juice and half the coriander in a small bowl. Add 2 tbsp  oil to
the pan, tip in the garlic mixture and stir-fry for 30 seconds.  2 Add
the pork and stir-fry for 8-10 minutes until well browned,  breaking up
the mince as it cooks with a wooden spoon.  3 Heat at least 5cm/2" oil
to 375F/190C in a pan or deep-fat fryer.  Add the peanuts, bamboo
shoots, fish sauce or soy, honey and chillies  to the pork mixture and
cook for another five minutes or until the  liquid has almost
completely evaporated.  4 Add two of the shallots to the heated oil and
deep-fry for 30  seconds or so until crispy. Remove with a slotted
spoon and drain  well on kitchen paper.  5 Place the remaining shallot
in a bowl with the orange segments and a  heaped teaspoon each of mint
and coriander. Mix until well combined  and pile into the middle of a
large plate or platter.  6 Stir the remaining mint and coriander into
the pork mixture and use  to fill the lettuce leaves, arranging them
around the orange salad.  Scatter over the crispy shallots and serve at
once.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Recipe by: Food & Drink  Converted by
