Method
- 1 Marinate the snakehead fish fillets with chopped lemongrass for 15 minutes to remove the fishy smell.
- 2 Grill the fish over charcoal for 12 minutes, flipping it once, and do not separate the fish into small pieces so that the flesh does not fall apart.
- 3 Cut the fish into long strips and let it cool slightly.
- 4 Crush garlic and chili peppers, then mix with fish sauce, lime juice, and sugar to make a rich and spicy nam jim sauce.
- 5 Wrap the fish with lettuce, herbs, and cucumber into small rolls; lui suan means running through the garden, so there should be more vegetables than fish.
