VIETNAMESE SALAD ROLLS (GỏI CUốN) – RECIPE FROM HERBIRVORACIOUS



VIETNAMESE SALAD ROLLS (GỏI CUốN) – RECIPE FROM HERBIRVORACIOUS image

Categories     Mint     Tofu     Summer     Chill     Healthy

Yield 3 people

Number Of Ingredients 18

Vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and kosher
For the dipping sauce
Juice of 3 limes
1-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
1 clove garlic, minced
1 stalk lemongrass, bottom 3" only, crushed and minced
1 green onion, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
For the rolls
12 rice paper wrappers
24 shiso leaves
1 bunch fresh mint, leaves only
1 bunch cilantro sprigs (leaves and tender stems)
1/4 pound rice vermicelli, cooked according to package directions and cooled
1 cucumber peeled, halved, and thinly sliced lengthwise, trimmed to 4" lengths
1 large carrot, peeled and julienned
1 pound tofu, pan fried as in this recipe, cooled, and cut into 24 pieces

Steps:

  • For the dipping sauce Whisk all ingredients together. Taste and adjust seasoning. Reserve. For the salad rolls Arrange all of the ingredients near your work surface. Fill a pie plate or other shallow pan large enough to hold one of the rice paper wrappers with very hot water. To make one roll, submerge a rice paper wrapper in the hot water for just a few seconds. It will still be fairly firm when you remove it. Don't worry, it will continue to hydrate while you arrange the ingredients. Place the wrapper on a flat surface. Near the edge closest to you, arrange 2 shiso leaves so they cover about 2/3rds of the width of the edge. Top with a few mint leaves and cilantro sprigs. Top with a small amount of rice noodles - this is hard to measure, but less than you think you should use. Now, in a line parallel to the first, but close to the center, place a slice of cucumber and a few pieces of carrot. Finally, parallel and close to the far edge, arrange two pieces of tofu. Begin by rolling completely around the herbs and noodles, slightly tucking under. Then fold in the edges like for a burrito, and then continue rolling to enclose the cucumber, carrot, and tofu. You want to use reasonably firm pressure but not enough to burst the wrapper. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it in just a few tries!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Soak the rice paper wrappers in warm water for a few seconds until they are pliable, but not too soft.
  • Lay the rice paper wrapper on a flat surface and arrange the fillings in the center, leaving about 2 inches of space at the top and bottom.
  • Roll the rice paper wrapper up tightly, starting from the bottom and working your way to the top.
  • Cut the salad rolls in half crosswise and serve with dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Vietnamese salad rolls are a delicious and healthy appetizer or light meal. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite fillings. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect salad rolls every time. So next time you are looking for a refreshing and flavorful dish, give Vietnamese salad rolls a try!
