Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Rinse the 12 betel leaves and pat dry. Trim any tough stems, keeping the leaves whole.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix the 0.5 cup roasted peanuts, 0.25 cup dried shrimp, and 1 finely chopped shallot.

  3. Step 3

    Cut the 1 lime into 12 small wedges, keeping the peel on.

  4. Step 4

    To serve, lay a betel leaf flat. Add a spoonful of the peanut-shrimp mixture, a lime wedge, and a drizzle of the 0.25 cup sweet chili sauce. Fold the leaf into a parcel and eat in one bite.

  5. Step 5

    Arrange the wrapped parcels on a plate and serve immediately.
