Ingredients

  • 12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, ground white pepper, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Heat the cooking oil in a non stick pan over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook until they turn pink and are cooked through, approximately 3 4 minutes per side. Season with salt to taste and remove from the pan.
  3. Place one crepe on a clean surface or serving plate. Spread a thin layer of coconut sauce evenly over the crepe.
  4. Arrange 3 shrimp in a row down the center of the crepe, fold the edges towards the center and roll up the filled crepe tightly like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining crepes and ingredients.
  5. Garnish each rolled crepe with thinly sliced green onions and fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.
