Form 2-inch, round patties with the shrimp/pork mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Cook the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove and set aside on a plate while you build your wraps.
To build a wrap, start with a lettuce leaf and place a few noodles and carrots on top. Add a shrimp patty and top with a couple mint and cilantro leaves. Drizzle a little nuoc cham (Vietnamese dipping sauce) over the top of the wrap.
Nuoc cham:
½ cup fish sauce
½ cup fresh lime juice
½ cup sugar
Directions:
Whisk together all ingredients until the sugar dissolves.
