Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the filling

    In a bowl, combine the shrimp, radish, basil, mint, chives, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well.

  2. 2

    Soak the rice paper

    Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until soft, then lay it flat on a clean surface.

  3. 3

    Assemble the spring rolls

    Place a lettuce leaf on the rice paper, add a spoonful of the shrimp filling, then roll it tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

  4. 4

    Fry the spring rolls

    In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the spring rolls in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tempura spring rolls warm with sweet red chili sauce for dipping.
