Vietnamese Raw Herring Salad (Gỏi cá trích)

Gỏi cá trích is a traditional salad originating from Phú Quốc island. It's made with a combination of herrings, mint, onions, shredded coconut, fresh greens (lettuce, herbs, cucumber slices), rice paper wrappers, and Phú Quốc fish sauce consisting of garlic, chili, lime juice, sugar, and peanuts.

The herring should be sliced and raw. The ingredients are combined together, then wrapped in rice paper and dipped in the sauce. Although this dish was once considered rustic, nowadays it can be found in most restaurants on the island.
