1

Wash and pluck the Piper sarmentosum leaves, leaving a small stem segment for rolling.

2

Sort the leaves by size for even cooking time.

3

Roll any broken leaves and add them to the ground beef mix.

4

In a bowl, combine ground beef with chopped onion, garlic, chicken bouillon, lots of lemongrass, fish sauce, pepper, sugar, and oyster sauce.

5

Mix the ingredients well until combined.

6

Use the leaf stem to hold the beef roll together by poking it into itself.

7

Wrap all the beef in the leaves and stack them onto skewers.

8

Brush the skewers with oil before grilling.

9

Grill the skewers for about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on grill heat, until the meat is cooked through and the leaves are crispy.

10

Check for doneness; the leaves should shrivel up and develop a nice char.
