Vietnamese Spring Rolls (Shrimp & Grilled Pork)
Vietnamese spring rolls (gỏi cuốn) or fresh spring rolls is a light dish yet so satisfying! Low in calories and served cold which is perfect for hot days!
It's made with rice paper that is filled with fresh herbs, vermicelli noodles, lettuce, and your choice of protein. This goes best with a spicy fish sauce dip (nước chấm) or a creamy peanut-hoisin sauce!
If you don't have an ingredient, it is okay and you can sub it for something else you like.
Tip// dip the rice paper in cold water then wait about 20 seconds and it should soften up, this helps prevent the rice paper from breaking.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
All the ingredients needed shown below.
- 2
Spread grilled pork (nem nuong) on a piece of foil and try to flatten it evenly then spread oil on both sides. Bake grilled pork at 375F for 30 mins then air-fry at 350F for 5 mins on both sides.
- 3
Blanch shrimp by bringing a pot of water with lemon to full boil and turn off heat. Add shrimp for about 2 mins and transfer to ice bath.
- 4
Slice grilled pork into thin pieces and slice shrimp in half.
- 5
Boil vermicelli noodles according to packaged directions, drain and rinse with cold water.
- 6
Wash and prepare all the herbs.
- 7
Dip rice paper roll in cold water and wait about 10-20 seconds until it softens.
- 8
I like to add all the herbs and vermicelli noodles on a piece of red leaf lettuce then on top of the rice paper for easier rolling. You want to add the protein near the end of the rice paper so that it shows on the outside (aesthetic purpose only). You don't need to do this and can add the protein on top of the lettuce if it's easier for you to roll the rice paper like that.
- 9
To roll, you want to roll forward then fold both sides inwards and continue rolling.
- 10
If you put the protein outside, you get pretty spring rolls like this.
- 11
To make the creamy peanut-hoisin sauce, combine peanut butter and hot water and mix that first. Once that is thoroughly mixed, add in the rest of the ingredients and mix again. Taste test and see if you need to add more of anything. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice for extra freshness.

Now you have the perfect spring roll with a creamy sauce!

I made veggies and tofu for my husband, while the veggies and shrimps was for me. Both are using the same steps. Especially for the dipping sauce since hubby requested #oilfree and #sugarfreeI used soy sauce instead of fish sauce.So here’s my recipe:

Fresh Spring Rolls with Shrimp Fresh Spring Rolls with Shrimp
I love fresh spring rolls, but they are rather expensive to buy readymade, so I made my own. I can't remember the shock I felt when I tried shiso leaves in them...it was a great match. Since then I've always used shiso leaves in these.The shiso leaves make a big difference, so I definitely recommending including them.The other vegetables can be anything you like. Try out your favorites. You can use canned tuna or ham etc. instead of the shrimp.The last important part of the recipe is the rolling. Just try it several times to get a feel for it. For 7 rolls.

It's a good idea to purchase two bags of Spring Roll Wrapers for practice rolls or any leftover filling. Be careful not to overstuff your rolls and wrap gently but tightly.

Fresh Spring Rolls Fresh Spring Rolls
I love fresh spring rolls, so I make them with ingredients that we always have at my house. Using boiled eggs or shrimp turns them into colourful and gorgeous fresh spring rolls. This time I used canned young (mini) corn, but crab-flavoured kamaboko and okra taste delicious and also look beautiful when the spring rolls are sliced in half.It's quicker to rehydrate the rice paper wrappers in hot water, but if they get too soft, they are hard to handle. So I think it's better to rehydrate them in cold water until you get the hang of it to avoid mistakes. If the rice paper wrappers are still too stiff to roll, wait a little until the moisture from the ingredients soften them. They will soon be soft enough to use. For 10 rolls.

Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls with Peanut Sauce Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls with Peanut Sauce
The fresh spring rolls I had at a food stall in Vietnam were so tasty that I toyed around with various flavors to come up with the right recipe The sauce is truly delicious.Use your choice of fillings. You don't have to have all of the ingredients. I also recommend filling them with avocado or kimchi. You could also substitute leftover somen noodles for the cellophane noodles. Wrapping the fillings first in the green salad leaves prevents the wrappers from breaking apart while wrapping, and also while eating. Recipe by Tomonchicchi -

Fresh Spring Rolls with Cheese & Cucumber Chikuwa Fresh Spring Rolls with Cheese & Cucumber Chikuwa
Cucumber chikuwa is a great appetizer, and I made it to be more voluminous! You can eat a lot of these spring rolls in place of a salad I stuff chikuwa with whatever I fancy to enjoy various kinds of fresh spring rolls.It's quicker to rehydrate rice paper wrappers in hot water, but they will be difficult to handle if they soften too much. So you won't fail much if you rehydrate them in water until you get used to making fresh spring rolls. If the rice paper wrapper is too hard to roll, it will soften with the moisture from the vegetables, so let them rest for a little. The rice paper wrapper will soon soften enough to roll.
