Make
- Heat a saute pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add oil. When oil begins to shimmer add onions and bell peppers. Saute until tender, ~3 minutes. Add pork and saute until nearly cooked through, ~6 minutes. Add curry paste, fish sauce, and honey and press against the bottom of the pan to break apart. Add coconut milk and stir to combine. Simmer until coconut milk reduces slightly, ~2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in basil and lime juice.
- Assemble wraps by topping lettuce leaves with pork filling and cashews. Serve with sauce for dipping and mango smoothie on the side!
