Pork Sausage Filling

Method

Preparation of Pork Sausage Filling

  1. 1

    Mix the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, minced garlic, minced shallots, fish sauce, sugar, black pepper, and chopped lemongrass. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  2. 2

    Shape the Sausage

    Form the mixture into small sausage shapes or patties, about 2 inches long.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sausage

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill with cooking oil. Grill the pork sausages for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked and browned. Remove from grill and set aside.

Assembly of Fresh Rolls

  1. 4

    Prepare Rice Paper

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

  2. 5

    Add Fillings

    Place a lettuce leaf on the lower third of the rice paper. Add a few pieces of grilled pork sausage, a small handful of cilantro and mint leaves, julienned carrot, and cucumber.

  3. 6

    Roll the Wrapper

    Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll from the bottom up tightly, but gently, ensuring the filling stays secure. Repeat this process with the remaining rice paper and ingredients.

Preparation of Dipping Sauce

  1. 7

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, hoisin sauce, and water. Stir until smooth.

  2. 8

    Add Spice

    Add chili paste to the sauce and mix well. Adjust the consistency with more water if necessary.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Garnish the sauce with crushed peanuts before serving.
