Spring Rolls Recipe

Spring Rolls

1. 1

   Prepare the Pork and Shrimp

   Start by marinating the pork and shrimp to enhance their flavors.

2. 2

   In a bowl, combine soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, sugar, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

3. 3

   Cut the pork tenderloin into thin strips and add it to the marinade. Add the shrimp as well. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Cook the Filling

   Next, cook the marinated pork and shrimp until they are fully cooked.

5. 5

   Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little oil, then add the marinated pork and shrimp. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the pork is cooked through and shrimp is pink and opaque.

6. 6

   Prepare the Rice Vermicelli

   While the pork and shrimp are cooking, prepare the rice vermicelli noodles.

7. 7

   Boil water in a pot, then add the rice vermicelli noodles. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 2-3 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

8. 8

   Assemble the Spring Rolls

   Now it's time to assemble the spring rolls with the cooked filling and fresh vegetables.

9. 9

   Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper in the water for about 10-15 seconds until soft. Lay the wrapper flat on a clean surface.

    In the center of the wrapper, layer a small amount of cooked pork, shrimp, rice vermicelli noodles, julienned carrot, cucumber, fresh mint, and cilantro.

11. 11

    Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll from the bottom up tightly to form a spring roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

    Serve

    Serve the spring rolls fresh with a dipping sauce if desired.
