Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry. Peel the cucumber and cut it into thin strips. Peel the carrot and julienne it into thin matchstick shapes. Rinse the cilantro and chop it roughly.

Cooking the Prawns

  1. 2

    Cook the Prawns

    In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the prawns to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until they turn pink and opaque.

  2. 3

    Add Seasoning

    Once the prawns are cooked, add the soy sauce, lime juice, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and let it cook for another minute until heated through.

Assembly

    Assemble the Wraps

    Take a lettuce leaf and place a spoonful of the prawn mixture in the center. Top with cucumber strips, carrot matchsticks, and chopped cilantro. Wrap the lettuce around the filling and enjoy!
