INGREDIENTS

  • Wrap & Fillings

    • 2 ounces rice vermicelli noodles
    • 8 rice wrappers (8.5 inch diameter)
    • 🦐 8 large cooked shrimp - peeled, deveined and cut in half
    • 2 leaves lettuce, chopped
    • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
    • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    • 1 ⅓ tablespoons chopped fresh Thai basil
  • Sauces

    • 💧 ¼ cup water
    • 🍋 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    • 🧂 2 tablespoons white sugar
    • 4 teaspoons fish sauce
    • 🧄 1 clove garlic, minced
    • ½ teaspoon garlic chili sauce

    • 1 teaspoon finely chopped peanuts

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in noodles and return to a boil. Cook noodles uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite (about 3 to 5 minutes); drain and set aside to cool.

3

Fill a large bowl with warm water. Dip one wrapper into the hot water for 1 second to soften.

4

Lay wrapper flat; place 2 shrimp halves in a row across the center, add some cooled noodles, lettuce, mint, cilantro, and basil, leaving about 2 inches uncovered on each side.

5

Fold uncovered sides inward, then tightly roll the wrapper, beginning at the end with lettuce. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

6

To make the chili sauce for dipping: Mix water, lime juice, sugar, fish sauce, garlic, and chili sauce in a small bowl until well combined.

7

To make the second sauce for dipping: Mix hoisin sauce and peanuts in a separate small bowl.

8

Serve spring rolls with the two sauce mixtures.
