- Cucumbers
- Carrots, prepackaged or cut into small strips
- Lettuce, cut lengthwise in half
- Cilantro, with stems
- Rice Vermicelli
- Rice Paper Wrappers
- Water
- (Optional) Pork, chicken, shrimp, or another protein option
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Prepare your vegetables, Peel the cucumbers, cut in half, and slice in long strips. Slice carrots in thin strips or buy prepackaged carrot slices. Cut lettuce in half, lengthwise.
- Cook rice vermicelli in a pot of boiling water, for a few minutes until soft. Stir the entire time, so vermicelli doesn’t stick to the bottom.
- Place a rice wrapper in a small bowl of water so it becomes completely wet.
- In the center of the wrapper, place a piece of lettuce, some cucumber slices, a few carrot slices, and a few pieces of cilantro with stems, Fold each side into the center; fold up the bottom and roll. (Optional) If you choose to add meat, add it to the wrapper before rolling.
- Enjoy!
