Delightful Vietnamese Summer Rolls filled with fresh herbs, crisp vegetables, and your choice of shrimp or tofu, perfect for warm weather dining or as an appetizer.

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

  1. Prepare the rice vermicelli noodles by cooking them according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, letting them cool a bit.
  2. 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.
  3. Set the softened wrapper flat on a clean surface, ready for filling.
  4. 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.
  5. Roll it up by folding the sides of the wrapper inward and then rolling it tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling until everything is rolled up and ready to serve.
  7. 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.
