Ingredients
- 12 spring roll rice paper wrappers
- 24 cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined halved horizontally)
- 12 leaves leafy green lettuce
- 4 ounces Vermicelli rice noodles (prepared according to package directions)
- 1 avocado (pitted and sliced)
- ½ cup shredded red cabbage
- ½ cup shredded carrots
- ½ cup cilantro sprigs
Hoisin Dipping Sauce
- ¼ cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- crushed peanuts (optional)
Instructions
- Boil 8 cups of water and keep warm.
- Whisk together hoisin dipping sauce and set aside.
- To soften the rice paper, fill a shallow pie plate with boiling water. Add one rice paper at a time and soak for 5 seconds then move to a plate to fill and roll. (Careful not to over-soak!)
- Working from the center of the roll, place one lettuce leaf and top with a couple tablespoons of vermicelli noodles. Top noodles with a small amount of shredded carrots and cabbage, one slice avocado, three shrimp halves and a couple sprigs of cilantro.
- Fold in the sides then bring bottom up over the filling and tuck while rolling tightly.
- Place on a platter seam side down and continue rolling remaining 11 sheets.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature with reserved dipping sauce.
