  • 12-14 Rice paper wrapper
  • 7oz (200g) vermicelli rice noodles
  • 9oz (260g) Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 large carrot
  • 1-2 Cucumbers
  • 2oz (60g) bean sprouts
  • 10 leaves green lettuce

2. Prepare all vegetables: slice carrot and cucumber into thin strips, chop cabbage and Gather all your filling ingredients on a large plate.

3. Cook vermicelli noodles in boiling water, for just a few minutes, according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.

4. Cook the shrimp in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes. Transfer to ice water, pat-try and cut in half length-wise. Remove tails (optional).
