Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Global
Servings: 8

Ingredients

For the summer rolls

  • 8 sheets Rice paper
  • 12 King prawns/jumbo prawns/Black Tiger prawns better with the shells on
  • 20 – 30 gram Dry rice vermicelli thin vermicelli works best
  • 1 Iceberg lettuce
  • 1 Coriander sprigs,
  • 16 Mint leaves chopped
  • 16 leaves Perilla leaves

For the hoisin dipping sauce

  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp Hoisin sauce,
  • 4 tbsp Peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp Water,
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha chilli sauce,
  • 1/2 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 Small shallot peeled and chopped
  • 1 tbsp Roasted peanuts crushed crushed

Instructions

For the Summer Rolls

  • Bring a saucepan of water to the boil and add a pinch of salt
  • When the water reaches boiling point add the prawns and cook for 2 – 2 ½ minutes depending on the size of prawns
  • While waiting for the prawns to be cook, prepare a bowl of ice cold water
  • Take the prawns out of the boiling water (keep the water) and put straight into the ice cold water, when the prawns have cooled down drain from the water.
  • Peel the shells and cut the prawns in half lengthways.
  • Using the same saucepan and water used to cook the prawns bring it back to the boil
  • Put the rice vermicelli in and cook for 6 – 10 minutes until the rice is soft
  • Drain the vermicelli and rinse under cold water to cool down and leave in a strainer to dry out
  • Cut the iceberg lettuce in half and slice into thin strips
  • Wash in cold water and leave in a strainer to dry
  • Wash the herbs in cold water and also leave in a strainer to dry
  • Prepare a deep bowl of warm water and a round plate to roll the summer rolls
  • Dip a sheet of rice paper into the water, take it out and lay on the plate
  • Put the thinly sliced lettuce on the bottom of the rice paper, and then put some vermicelli on top of lettuce
  • Put 3 pieces of half cut prawns with the red skin down on the middle of rice paper then put 2 leaves of each herb and coriander on top of the prawns
  • Start rolling by folding the bottom of the rice paper into the centre then fold the 2 sides of rice paper inward like you’re making a gift box
  • Continue to roll the rice paper to the end
  • Try to roll as tightly as possible as this will affect the appearance and texture of the summer roll
  • Once finished rolling, put the summer rolls in a container and cover with a damp cloth until serving
  • This will help you to keep the summer rolls for at least 4 hours without being dried out

For the Peanut Dipping Sauce

  • Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat then fry the chopped shallots until soft and transparent
  • Add the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, chilli sauce, sugar and water and bring to a simmer
  • Let it simmer for 1 minute and leave to one side to cool down
  • Pour into a sauce dish and sprinkle with crushed peanuts on top
  • Enjoy the summer rolls by dipping into the sauce.
