For the Spring Rolls
  • Round rice-paper wrappers 16

  2. Fill a wide, shallow bowl with warm water. Dunk 2 rice papers at a time into the water and let sit for about 1 minute until softened. Lift the rice papers out of the water carefully and lay them, one on top of the other, on a clean dish towel.
  3. Lay about 4 mint leaves in a line at the bottom of the rice paper, then add 4 shrimp halves on top of the mint. Top with a small handful of the rice noodles, a lettuce leaf, a small handful of bean sprouts, and a few cilantro leaves.
  4. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the rice paper up like a burrito and set on a serving platter seam-side down. Vietnamese Shrimp-and-Herb Spring Rolls Recipe.
  5. Repeat with the remaining ingredients until you have 8 rolls. Halve the rolls and serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
