Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup white vinegar
¼ cup fish sauce
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 ounces rice vermicelli
8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 rice wrappers (8.5 inch diameter)
2 leaves lettuce, chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
4 teaspoons finely chopped Thai basil

Steps:

  • Whisk vinegar, fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, garlic, and red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Set the dipping sauce aside.
  • Fill a large bowl with room temperature water. Add rice vermicelli and soak for 1 hour.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Drop in shrimp and cook until curled and pink, about 1 minute. Remove the shrimp and drain. Slice each shrimp in half lengthwise. Transfer rice vermicelli noodles to the pot of boiling water and cook for 1 minute. Remove and drain in a colander. Immediately rinse the vermicelli with cold water, stirring to separate the noodles.
  • To assemble the rolls, dip 1 rice wrapper in a large bowl of room temperature water for a few seconds to soften. Place wrapper on a work surface and top with 4 shrimp halves, 1/4 of the chopped lettuce, 1/2 ounce vermicelli, and 1/4 each of the mint, cilantro, and Thai basil. Fold right and left edges of the wrapper over the ends of the filling and roll up the spring roll. Repeat with remaining wrappers and ingredients. Cut each roll in half and serve with dipping sauce.

These spring rolls were a disaster. The rice paper wrappers were too thick and the filling was too dry. The dipping sauce was also very bland.

I've tried making these spring rolls several times, but I can never seem to get them right. The rice paper wrappers always tear and the filling always falls out.

These spring rolls were okay. The dipping sauce was good, but the filling was a bit bland.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my spring rolls turned out really soggy. The rice paper wrappers were too thick and the filling was too wet.

These spring rolls were really good! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more flavor to the filling. Maybe some chopped peanuts or cilantro.

These spring rolls were easy to make and turned out great! I used shrimp, pork, and vegetables for the filling, and the dipping sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not a big fan of spring rolls, but these were really good! The rice paper wrappers were soft and chewy, and the filling was flavorful and fresh. The dipping sauce was also very good.
