Ingredients
- Rice paper wrappers
- Cooked shrimp or tofu
- Rice vermicelli noodles
- Lettuce leaves
- Fresh herbs (mint, cilantro, basil)
- Carrots (julienned)
- Cucumber (julienned)
- Peanut sauce or hoisin sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Prepare the rice vermicelli noodles by cooking them according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, letting them cool a bit.
- Soften the rice paper wrapper by filling a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one wrapper into the water for about 10 seconds, or until it becomes soft.
- Set the softened wrapper flat on a clean surface, ready for filling.
- Build your filling by placing a small amount of rice vermicelli, shrimp or tofu, lettuce leaves, fresh herbs, carrots, and cucumber in the center of the wrapper.
- Roll it up by folding the sides of the wrapper inward and then rolling it tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.
- Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling until everything is rolled up and ready to serve.
- Serve the rolls arranged on a plate with your choice of peanut sauce or hoisin sauce for dipping.
Notes
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Keep the dipping sauce separate to maintain freshness.
