Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk tamarind paste, fish sauce, lime juice, and sliced chili in a small bowl until smooth. Taste and adjust heat or tang as needed.

  2. Step 2

    Arrange fish slices on a plate. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  3. Step 3

    Lay out lettuce leaves on a serving board. Fill each leaf with a small handful of fish, a pinch of crispy shallots, and fresh herbs.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle or dab the tamarind sauce onto each wrap. Serve immediately with extra sauce on the side for dipping.
