📝 Ingredients (Makes 8 Rolls)

For the Spring Rolls:

  • 8 rice paper wrappers (22cm size)
  • 1/2 lb (225g) shrimp, peeled, cooked, and sliced in half
  • 2 oz (60g) rice vermicelli noodles, cooked
  • 1 cup lettuce leaves (romaine or butter lettuce)
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup julienned cucumber
  • 1/2 cup fresh herbs (mint, basil, cilantro)

Optional Add-Ins:

  • Sliced avocado
  • Tofu (pan-fried or baked)
  • Bell peppers
  • Purple cabbage

🥣 For the Peanut Dipping Sauce

  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1–2 tbsp warm water (to thin)
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar or lime juice
  • Crushed peanuts and chili flakes (for garnish)

🍽️ Instructions

Step 1: Prep Ingredients

  • Cook vermicelli noodles according to package instructions and drain.
  • Wash and prep vegetables and herbs.
  • Boil shrimp for 2–3 minutes, then slice in half lengthwise.

Step 2: Soften the Rice Paper

  • Fill a large shallow bowl or plate with warm water.
  • Dip one rice paper sheet for 5–10 seconds until pliable (not too soft).
  • Lay flat on a clean, damp towel or board.

Step 3: Fill and Roll

  • Layer lettuce, noodles, herbs, carrots, cucumbers, and shrimp (pink side down) in the center.
  • Fold the sides over, then roll tightly like a burrito.
  • Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Step 4: Make the Peanut Sauce

  • In a small bowl, mix hoisin sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, and vinegar.
  • Add warm water to reach desired consistency.
  • Garnish with crushed peanuts or chili oil if desired.

👩‍🍳 Tips for Success

  • Don’t over-soak rice paper – it will tear easily.
  • Keep ingredients dry before assembling to prevent soggy rolls.
  • Roll tightly but gently to avoid tearing.
  • Cover rolls with a damp cloth if not serving immediately.

🥗 Serving Suggestions

  • Serve with peanut hoisin sauce or nước chấm (Vietnamese dipping sauce with fish sauce, lime, garlic, and chili)
  • Add a side of pickled veggies for a fresh crunch
  • Pair with jasmine iced tea or Vietnamese iced coffee

📦 Storage

  • Best enjoyed fresh the same day
  • Store tightly wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 1 day in the fridge
  • Keep dipping sauce in a separate container
