Servings: 4

 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Thai basil or you can use regular basil

small head of Boston lettuce, roughly chopped

small chili pepper, finely chopped

1/4 cup fish sauce

1/2 cup coriander (cilantro) leaves

1 clove garlic

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1/2 cup mint leaves

red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/4 cup rice vinegar

8 large cooked shrimp, slice in half lengthways

8 large (8-inch) spring roll wrappers

1 tablespoon sugar

1/4 cup water

Nuoc Cham (dipping sauce)

Equipment:

bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Have all the ingredients ready for assembly. In a large bowl filled with water, dip a wrapper in the water. The rice wrapper will begin to soften and this is your cue to remove it from the water and lay it flat. Place 2 shrimp halves in a row across the center and top with basil, mint, cilantro and lettuce. Leave about 1 to 2 inches uncovered on each side. Fold uncovered sides inward, then tightly roll the wrapper, beginning at the end with the lettuce. Repeat with remaining wrappers and ingredients. Cut and serve at room temperature with dipping sauce.
  2. The Culinary Chases Note: The rice wrapper can be fussy to handle if you let it soak too long. I usually give it a couple of swishes in the water and then remove. It may feel slightly stiff but by the time you are ready to roll up, the wrapper will become very pliable. A typical spring roll contains cooked rice vermicelli, slivers of cooked pork and julienned carrots but you can use whatever suits your fancy. Enjoy!

Food Joke

A man and his wife were in a fancy resturant. While ordering, they noticed that the waiter had a spoon in his shirt pocket, and after looking around, they observed the other waiters and busboys each had a similar spoon. So the husband says, "what's with the spoon?" The waiter said,"well, we had this company come in and evaluate our time management and they found that people drop their spoon 74.8% more often than any other utensil. So if we carry one with us, we can reduce the trips back to the kitchen by 3 hours per shift. The husband was impressed. Sure enough, he dropped his spoon during dinner and the waiter replaced it with his, stating, "I'll just get another when I go to the kitchen for something else". While ordering dessert, the husband noted that the waiter had a very thin string hanging from the fly of his pants, as did the other waiters, so the husband asks, " hey, there's a string on your pants". The waiter tells him, " not all my customers are as observant as you... the same company found that we can reduce the amount of time spent in the bathroom by 2 hours each shift if we tie a string around the end of you-know-what, and when we have to go we just unzip and pull it out with the string completely eliminating the need to wash up and saving time." The husband was impressed, but asked, " it's a good idea but how do you get it back in your pants?". The waiter leaned close and whispered, " well I don't know about the rest of them, but personally I use the spoon."
