Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 Pieces rice paper
- ½ Head lettuce
- 24 shrimp peeled, de-veined and cooked
- ½ Cup carrots cut into matchsticks
- 2 cucumbers baby, peeled and julienned
- 1 yellow bell pepper thinly sliced
- ¼ red cabbage thinly chopped
- ½ Cup microgreens
- ½ Package rice noodles cooked and drained

For the Spicy Garlic Sauce
- ¼ Cup red chili sauce
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
- ½ Tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 Teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ Teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Peel and thinly slice cucumbers. Thinly slice peppers and red cabbage. Set aside. Cook rice noodles and drain.
- Add warm water to a shallow dish. Dip rice paper into the water for just a few seconds to soften, careful not to soak the paper. Place onto a plate.
- Running down the center of the rice paper, add 3 shrimp. Layer a small amount of chopped basil, rice noodles, carrots, cucumbers, bell pepper, red cabbage, microgreens, and 1 to 2 pieces of lettuce covering the top.
- Fold the left side of the rice paper over the fillings, then repeat with the top and bottom sides. Tightly tuck and roll to the right side of the rice paper.
- Prepare the dip. Add all ingredients into a food processor and puree until smooth.
- Serve with spicy garlic dip.
Notes
Soak briefly: Only dip the rice paper for a few seconds so it stays workable.
Don’t overfill: A little goes a long way to keep the roll easy to wrap.
Use a damp surface: Roll on a damp plate to prevent sticking.
Slice carefully: Use a sharp knife and cut gently to avoid tearing the wrappers.
