Get outside! Recipes for the perfect picnic

Dice the lobster meat and combine with oil, soy, mirin, vinegar, chili sauce and pepper flakes.

Soften the rice paper by putting the half circles between very wet kitchen towels.

Press the towels gently; the rice paper should be pliable within 10 minutes.

Carefully lay a softened half circle on work surface, curved side away from you.

Place 2 leaves of lettuce toward bottom of paper (overlapping).

Place one-fourth of the lobster one-third up from the bottom of the sheet.

Equally distribute carrot, scallion, herbs and peanuts.

Turn the bottom to enclose the filling.

Fold in the sides and roll up tightly to form a log (the paper will adhere to itself).

Repeat the procedure with the remaining rice paper and serve .
