Method

Put mandarin oranges in a blender and pulse for 15 seconds or until smooth. Add to a medium saucepan, along with the soy sauce, orange juice, honey and salt; whisk in the cornstarch and bring to a simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in the wasabi powder. Pour into serving dish and sprinkle with the 2 tbsp green onion; set aside. To assemble the salmon rolls, place lettuce leaves on flat surface. Mix the rice vinegar with the rice and remaining green onions. Evenly distribute the rice mix among the lettuce; top with the smoked salmon. Roll lettuce leaves jelly-roll style, folding in sides; place seam-side-down on serving platter. Serve with prepared sauce for dipping.
