Method

Preparation of Protein

  1. 1

    Cook the Shrimp

    Boil the shrimp in salted water for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Remove from water, cool, and slice in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork Tenderloin

    Season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear it over medium heat for about 6-8 minutes on each side until cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes, then thinly slice.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Pork Sausage

    Slice the pork sausage into thin rounds and set aside.

Vegetable Prep

  1. 4

    Prepare the Noodles

    Cook the rice vermicelli noodles according to package instructions (usually boiling for 3-5 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

    Chop the Vegetables

    Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips. Set aside with the lettuce, mint, and cilantro.

Rolling the Rice Paper Rolls

  1. 6

    Soak the Rice Paper

    Fill a large bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until it softens. Carefully remove and place it on a clean surface.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Rolls

    On the lower third of the rice paper, place a piece of lettuce, a small amount of vermicelli noodles, shrimp, pork, sausage, cucumber, carrot, mint, and cilantro.

  3. 8

    Roll It Up

    Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll from the bottom up, keeping it tight. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Prepare the Dipping Sauce

  1. 9

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine hoisin sauce, peanut butter, and water. Mix until smooth and well combined.
