Transfer leaves to bowl of ice water, remove and pat dry.
Take a leaf and bring the edges of where the stem was together. Spoon 2 heaped Tbsp. of mince onto the leafy end of the wombok. Roll the leaf and the mince together once keeping a log shape. Then fold the sides in and continue to roll tightly. Repeat for the rest of the meat and leaves.
