Notes

You'll need to cook 1 cup rice. To prevent just-cooked rice clumping together, spread it out on a baking tray to cool. To separate lettuce leaves, hold lettuce upright on a flat surface, then bang the core down to loosen. Twist and pull out core. Separate leaves, discarding damaged outer leaves if any. If you have time, place leaves in ice-cold water, then refrigerate to crisp. Drain.
