Ingredients

  • Iceberg lettuce
  • Pre-roast chicken shredded
  • Pâté
  • Coriander
  • Spring onion finely sliced
  • 2 tbsp Fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 carrot juilenned
  • Vermicelli noodles cooked

Instructions

  • Start by preparing the pickled carrot. Shred the roast chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix it with the shredded carrot, some lemon juice, a pinch of sugar, and a splash of fish sauce. Let it sit while you get the rest of the ingredients ready so the flavours can develop.
  • Separate the iceberg lettuce leaves carefully, ensuring they remain intact, as they will serve as the wraps.
  • Have the vermicelli noodles cooked and cooled, and the coriander chopped up (and any other fresh ingredients you may like)
  • To assemble, place some vermicelli noodles on each lettuce leaf, then layer in the pickled carrot and chicken mix, spread a little pâté and top with the coriander or any herbs you choose,
  • Wrap everything up using the lettuce as a shell, folding it over like a taco. If you’re feeling confident, roll it up like a rice paper roll.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy a quick, fresh, and vibrant meal that captures the essence of Vietnamese cuisine.
