Assemble the Spring Rolls
Place a lettuce leaf in the center of the softened rice paper. Add a generous amount of the seafood and vegetable filling on top of the lettuce. Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top to form a spring roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
