Step 1
Whisk rice flour, water, 1 tbsp fish sauce, and a pinch of salt until smooth with no lumps.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until it shimmers.
Step 3
Pour 1/4 cup batter into the center and immediately tilt the pan to spread thin, like a crepe.
Step 4
Cook 2 minutes until the underside is golden and crispy, then flip and cook another 1 minute on the other side.
Step 5
Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter to make 8 crepes total, greasing the pan between batches.
Step 6
Toss shrimp with remaining 2 tbsp fish sauce in a small bowl, then quickly pan-fry over high heat 2 minutes per side until pink.
Step 7
Top each crepe with shrimp, herbs, fried shallots, and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve hot.
