Remove potato from the basket and drain on paper towels. Fill immediately with seafood mixture.
MARTIN YAN'S LETTUCE CUPS
I had always wanted to duplicate this refreshing and savory dish sometimes found in Chinese restaurants. Martin Yan (of Yan Can Cook) didn't let me down! It also happens to be low-carb. I skipped all the veggies except the carrots and was more generous with the sesame oil, sherry and ginger than the amounts listed, so adjust to your taste.
