Method

  1. Salt the green papaya lightly for 10 minutes, rinse, and squeeze gently to remove excess moisture and raw bitterness.
  2. Sauté garlic and onion, add pork, and cook until nearly done. Add shrimp and cook until opaque.
  3. Add papaya, carrot, soy sauce, and stock. Cover and cook 5–7 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Drain and cool the filling. It must be moist but not wet.
  5. Whisk wrapper ingredients and rest 15 minutes. Cook thin flexible crepes in a nonstick pan.
  6. Simmer sauce ingredients and thicken with slurry until glossy.
  7. Place lettuce and filling on each wrapper, fold the bottom and sides, and roll loosely.
  8. Spoon sauce over and top with garlic and peanuts immediately before serving.
