Ingredients
Rolls:
- 1 ½ ounces uncooked bean threads cellophane noodles
- 12 (8-inch round) sheets rice paper
- 2 cups thinly sliced curly leaf lettuce
- 1 cup grated carrot
- 1 cup fresh bean sprouts
- 24 medium basil leaves
Peanut Sauce:
- 1 cup hot water
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce (omit for vegetarian sauce)
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- ½ cup finely chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
Instructions
- Combine bean threads and 2 cups hot water in a bowl; let stand 10 minutes. Drain; cut into 2-inch lengths with scissors.
- Add cold water to a large shallow dish to a depth of 1 inch. Cut 4 rice paper sheets in half, leaving remaining 8 sheets whole. Place 1 whole rice paper sheet and 1 half rice paper sheet in dish of water. Let stand 30 seconds or until soft (but don’t over soak because then it will tear easily and be harder to work with). Remove sheets from water.
- Place whole rice paper sheet on a flat surface; top with half sheet, lining up edges of both sheets. Place ¼ cup lettuce over half sheet, leaving a ½-inch border around outer edge of half sheet. Arrange 2 tablespoons grated carrot, 1 ½ tablespoons bean threads, 2 tablespoons bean sprouts, and 3 basil leaves over lettuce. Fold sides of rice paper sheets over filling; roll up tightly, jelly-roll fashion. Gently press seam to seal; place, seam side down, on a serving platter (cover to keep from drying). Repeat procedure with remaining rice paper sheets, lettuce, carrot, bean threads, bean sprouts, and basil.
- Cut each roll in half crosswise.
- To make the sauce, combine first 3 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well. Cool completely. Stir in remaining ingredients and serve with the rolls.
