Instructions
- Prepare the dressing by mixing mayo, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, and garlic. Set aside.
- Prepare spring onions, cucumber, and carrot by chopping into desired size pieces. I julienned the carrot.
- Carefully remove leaves from lettuce one by one, choosing ones that are shaped well for holding the wrap contents.

- Great for an appetizer or light meal.
- The number of wraps you make really depends how much you stuff in them.
