SPRING ROLLS

Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Cook rice vermicelli for 1–2 minutes, or until al dente. Drain. Rinse with cold water. Toss with oil.

7
Done

Place vermicelli in the center of each lettuce leaf. Roll tight like a burrito.

8

Fill a large bowl with hot water. Place one spring roll wrapper into hot water until soft and pliable (10 to 15 seconds).

Remove wrapper and blot on a clean tea towel. Lay wrapper flat.

To build the shrimp spring rolls, place the lettuce-vermicelli package in the center of the wrapper, leaving about 2 inches uncovered on each side. Behind the lettuce-vermicelli package, layer the shrimp, shredded cabbage and mint leaves.

11

Fold wrapper sides inward, and then tightly roll the wrapper over the lettuce-vermicelli package. Continue to roll over the shrimp and shredded cabbage until tightly rolled and sealed.
