Thank you for the word of warning.

I'd like to eat a lettuce salad with cucumber and spring onions (standard stuff where I live).

What kind of indegenous preparation technique do I need to use to make the lettuce safe to eat?

I believe you would have to extract the juice, turn it into a kind of lettuce milk by boiling and straining, and then ferment the result into cheese. Takes about 6 months. Best enjoyed paired with 5kg of raw beef and a litre of vodka.

Sounds great but I wanted to have a salad. Is there no way to make lettuce salad safe to eat?

It's just loaded with oxalate, eat it and be merry and don't mind the kidney stones and pseudo-gout.
