Fresh Shrimp Rolls with Peanut Sauce

Ingredients

    • 8 round rice papers wrappers
    • ½ pound medium poached shrimp, sliced in lengthwise
    • 1 large carrot, peeled and cut into 4-inch long matchsticks
    • ½ bunch green onions, cut into 4-inch matchsticks
    • 1 small red bell pepper, cut into 4-inch matchsticks
    • 1 bunch cilantro, washed, dried stems removed
    • 1 head bibb lettuce, leaves separated, and ribs removed

    Directions

    1. Dip a piece of rice paper into a bowl of warm water until soft and pliable, about 5 seconds, shake off excess water and place onto a clean, smooth surface. Starting on the lower third of the rice paper, layout 3 or 4 slices of shrimp. Top with a few carrots, green onion, and red bell pepper matchsticks and garnish with cilantro leaves, followed by a couple of lettuce leaves.
    2. Fold the bottom of the rice paper up over the filling. Carefully but firmly, fold in the sides and then roll-up. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Arrange rolls on a serving platter and serve with coconut peanut sauce on the side.
    3. In a medium bowl, add all ingredients, whisk to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional lime juice, soy sauce, and chile paste. Adjust consistency with water.
