1. Bring a small pot of water to a boil and cook the shrimp for 3 minutes until pink and opaque, then remove and let them cool completely.
2. Once cooled, peel and halve the shrimp lengthwise and set aside.
3. Slice the cucumber into thin matchsticks and prepare the lettuce leaves and fresh mint, arranging all components within easy reach for rolling.
4. Lay a lettuce leaf flat, then layer cucumber matchsticks, mint, and halved shrimp along the center of the leaf.
