Spring Rolls

SPRING ROLLS😍 

Summer doesn’t have to mean eating salads every day from June to August. Wrap up some veggies and protein in a rice paper hug, dunk in a deliciously creamy peanut sauce, and feel less guilty when you eat 4 (or 7?😉) Special shout out to my roommate for teaching me how to finally make these aesthetically pleasing, since mine used to look like overstuffed sausages😂 You gotta make this! 

PS: I have seen most of these ingredients at my traditional grocery store in California, so I would check there first! If not, any major Asian grocer will carry all of these ingredients :)


Serves 2.

Ingredients:

For the Vietnamese Spring Rolls:

  • 4 spring roll wrappers

  • 6 jumbo pieces of shrimp 

  • 2 Persian cucumbers

  • 1 cup shredded carrots

  • 4 leaves romaine or red leaf lettuce

  • 1 cup vermicelli noodles

  • Mint 

  • Cilantro

  • Salt to taste

For the Dipping Sauce:

  • 3 tbsps crunchy peanut butter

  • 2 tbsps hoisin sauce

  • 2 tbsps coconut milk

  • 1 tsp soy sauce

  • 1 tsp sriracha (I love @yellowbirdsauce )

  • 2-4 tbsps hot water (depending on the consistency you like your sauce)

Directions:

For the Spring Rolls:

  • Cook vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. Rinse under cold water to cool. 

  • Add shrimp to a small saucepan and cover with water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until pink (about 5-6 minutes). Let cool and cut in half lengthwise. 

  • Cut cucumber into matchsticks.

  • In a bowl, mix peanut butter, hoisin sauce, coconut milk, soy sauce, and sriracha. Add hot water until desired consistency is reached.

  • Add warm water to a large bowl and dip each individual rice paper for 6-10 seconds until more pliable (you want it to still be firm when you remove it from the water, it will soften more as it sits on the plate).

  • Place on a plate, add the lettuce, vermicelli noodles, carrots, cucumber, mint and cilantro. Behind the lettuce, add the shrimp with the pink side facing down. 

  • Fold in each side and roll tight. Serve with the dipping sauce and enjoy! 🤤🤤
