Add the rice, 1/2 cup water, the coconut milk-basil puree and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to prevent the rice from sticking.

Top the lettuce leaves with the bean sprout mixture and shrimp skewers. Serve with the rice and lime wedges.

Meanwhile, add the beans to the boiling water and cook for 3 mins, then drain.
