# Instructions:
01 -
Fry 1 head of minced garlic until golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
02 -
In the same pan, sauté garlic and onion until aromatic and translucent. Add the chicken breast and cook until lightly browned. Season with fish sauce and pepper, then stir-fry for 1 minute. Add carrots and cook for 2 minutes. Then, add sweet potatoes and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add green beans and stir-fry for another minute. Pour in water, seasoning granules, and salt to taste, stirring well. Add turnips and cabbage, stir and sauté for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
03 -
In a pan, combine water, brown sugar, garlic, and cornstarch. Mix well until dissolved. Heat over medium heat, then add soy sauce and salt. Stir continuously and cook until thickened.
04 -
In a bowl, beat eggs. Add water, oil, food color (if using), and salt, then mix well. Gradually add flour and cornstarch, mixing until smooth. Strain the batter to remove lumps. Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with oil. Pour ¼ cup batter into the pan, swirling to coat evenly. Cook until the bottom is set, then flip and cook the other side briefly. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Place a wrapper on a flat surface, add the filling, and roll tightly. Serve with the sauce on top and garnish with toasted crushed peanuts and romaine lettuce.

Allow the filling to cool completely before wrapping to prevent the wrapper from tearing.
