Ingredients

  • 8 oz cooked shrimp (8–10 oz), halved lengthwise
  • 4 oz cooked pork (rotisserie or leftover), shredded
  • 12 leaves crisp lettuce leaves (butter lettuce or iceberg)
  • ½ large cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 3 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk peanut butter, fish sauce, and 2 tbsp warm water until smooth and pourable. Taste and adjust.

    Lay a lettuce leaf flat on a cutting board. Place 1 shrimp half, a pinch of pork, and a few cucumber sticks across the center.

  3. 3

    Fold the left and right edges of the leaf over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up.

  4. 4

    Repeat until you've used all the shrimp and pork (you'll have 12–16 rolls). Arrange on a platter.

  5. 5

    Pour the peanut sauce into a small bowl for dipping. Serve immediately.
