Instructions

  • Prepare dipping sauce by combining sauce ingredients and reserve.
  • Cook the rice noodles in boiling water for about 5 minutes, or until al dente. Shock them by immediately placing them in ice water to stop the cooking process and drain them well.
  • Combine the noodles, carrots, cucumber, lettuce and cabbage to make the filling.
  • Soak the rice paper in warm water for about 15 seconds, until it starts to soften and then place it on a cutting board. Place about a half cup of the vegetable filling in the center of the wrapper and top it with the basil, cilantro, mint, avocado and two shrimp pieces.
  • Roll from the bottom up containing the filling with your fingers. Once the bottom skin rolls over once, push down to flatten it a little. Fold in two sides snugly, and then roll up the parcel. Lay it seam side down on a serving plate. Serve with the hoisin dipping sauce.

Chef Tips

If you can’t find Thai Basil, feel free to sub Italian Basil.
