Assembling the Summer Rolls
Assemble the Rolls
Soak a rice paper wrapper in warm water for about 10 seconds, then lay it flat on a clean surface. Place a few leaves of gem lettuce, a small handful of herbs, a few pieces of octopus, and a spoonful of pickled vegetables in the center of the wrapper. Fold in the sides and roll tightly from the bottom up.
Serve
Repeat the process with remaining wrappers and fillings. Serve the summer rolls with Jaew sauce on the side for dipping.
