250g of peeled king prawns
4 tbsp of Lee Kum Kee Char Siu sauce
1 large mango, peeled and diced

Heat a griddle pan (or BBQ) over a high heat. Combine the prawns with the char siu sauce and place onto the griddle pan. Cook for around 2 minutes per side, until pink and slightly charred. Set aside.

Step 2

Mix the rice and sugar snap peas with the mango, sesame oil, soy sauce and mirin. Separate the leaves of the gem lettuce and spoon a little rice mixture into each one. Top with the prawns. Sprinkle over the crushed peanuts and a little Chiu Chow chilli oil if desired.
