Ingredients

• 6 pieces Rice paper wrappers
• 6 pieces Cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 50 grams Rice vermicelli noodles
• 2 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
• 10 grams Fresh cilantro leaves
• 1 medium Carrot, julienned
• 0.5 medium Cucumber, julienned
• 10 grams Mint leaves
• 2 tablespoons Peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 1 tablespoon Crushed peanuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the rice vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. Typically, you will need to soak them in boiling water for about 3-5 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Prepare the vegetables: wash the romaine lettuce, parsley, and mint leaves. Slice the carrot and cucumber into thin julienne strips.

Step 3

Fill a large shallow bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until pliable. Remove and place it on a clean, flat surface like a cutting board.

Step 4

Lay a small piece of romaine lettuce on the bottom third of the rice paper wrapper, leaving space on the edges for folding. Add a small portion of rice noodles, a few julienned carrots and cucumbers, 1-2 mint and cilantro leaves, and one cooked shrimp.

Step 5

Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling. Then fold the sides inward, and roll tightly to create a cylinder. Repeat with the remaining rice paper wrappers and ingredients until you have six spring rolls.

Step 6

Prepare the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and water until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed. Top with crushed peanuts if desired.

Step 7

Serve the spring rolls immediately with the peanut dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy your fresh, healthy spring rolls!
