Preparation

- In a bowl, combine the chicken, oil and curry powder. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a ridged skillet, grill the cutlets for about 3 minutes per side or until cooked through. Let cool. Finely chop the cutlets into 10-cm (4-inch) long strips. Cover and refrigerate.
- Dip the chives in boiling water for 10 seconds, then quickly cool in ice water. Drain and set aside.
- In a bowl, blend the avocados, mayonnaise and cilantro. Keep refrigerated.
- Cut each lettuce leaf, preserving the curly side, so as to obtain a 10-cm (4-inch) square.
Assembly
- On a work surface, lay 6 sheets of lettuce at a time. Spread some avocado mayonnaise in the centre of each leaf. Garnish with chicken strips, carrots, cucumber and a basil leaf. Season with salt. Roll each sheet on itself. Wrap a sprig of chives around each roll, then tie in a knot. Trim the flat end to level the rolls. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the rolls and sauce on a serving platter.
Sauce
- In a pretty bowl, combine all the ingredients.
