½ courgette (peeled and chopped)
Juice of ½ lime

Prepare the side salad:Toss rocket and tomatoes with lime juice and a touch of sea salt.
Serve:Arrange the lettuce rolls on a plate, drizzle a bit more sauce on top or serve it as a dip on the side.Add the rocket & tomato salad for a fresh contrast.
