Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk flour, coconut milk, turmeric, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.5 cup water until smooth batter forms.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, ~90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Pour 0.5 cup batter into the skillet, tilting to spread thin. Let it set 1 minute until edges start to crisp.

  4. Step 4

    Scatter half the shrimp and squid across the crepe, then half the herbs. Drizzle 0.5 tbsp fish sauce over.

  5. Step 5

    Cook 2–3 minutes until the bottom turns golden and crispy, edges curl up. Fold in half and slide onto a plate.

  6. Step 6

    Repeat with remaining batter, seafood, and herbs. Serve hot with extra fish sauce for dipping.
