Picture this: A platter of beautifully assembled rolls, each one a work of culinary art. The vibrant green hues of water lettuce leaves serve as the base, providing a refreshing and crisp wrapping for the flavorful ingredients within.

But what truly sets these rolls apart is the filling. Thin slices of succulent, long-cut beef cradle the star of the show – plump, juicy prawns. The beef slices, slightly overlapping, create a substantial and flavorful foundation, while the prawns take center stage, their vibrant pink hue promising a burst of seafood goodness with every bite.

Now, imagine the sizzle. As the rolls hit the hot pan, a symphony of sounds emerges. The gentle hiss of cooking oil and the tantalizing aroma of searing beef and prawns fill the air, setting the stage for a truly sensory experience.
