Ingredients

• 200 grams Shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 medium Cucumber, julienned
• 1 medium Carrot, julienned
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, julienned
• 1 medium Avocado, sliced
• 8 leaves Butter lettuce leaves
• 20 leaves Fresh mint leaves
• 20 leaves Fresh cilantro leaves
• 8 sheets Low-carb rice paper substitute
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 whole Lime, juiced
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 clove Garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by bringing a pot of water to a gentle boil. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Drain the shrimp and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain, pat dry, and set aside.

Step 2

2. Prepare the vegetables: julienne the cucumber, carrot, and red bell pepper. Slice the avocado and place all these prepared vegetables aside.

Step 3

3. Rinse and pat dry the butter lettuce, mint, and cilantro leaves.

Step 4

4. To assemble the summer rolls, soften each low-carb rice paper substitute according to package instructions. Typically, a quick dip in warm water should suffice.

Step 5

5. Lay the softened rice paper sheet on a clean, flat surface like a cutting board. Start by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom third of the sheet.

Step 6

6. Layer a few slices of avocado, cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper on top of the lettuce. Arrange 3-4 shrimp halves neatly on top.

Step 7

7. Sprinkle some mint and cilantro leaves over the shrimp and vegetables. Avoid overfilling to make rolling easier.

Step 8

8. Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then starting from the bottom, roll it up tightly to enclose the filling completely. Repeat with the remaining sheets and filling.

Step 9

9. For the dipping sauce, mix together lime juice, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic in a small bowl.

Step 10

10. Serve the summer rolls with the prepared dipping sauce.
