Spring Roll and Dipping Sauce

I think Spring Roll is one of the easiest food to make and very FULLFILLING. You can basically use anything that you have on hand and it still taste great.

SPRING ROLL 

Ingredients: 
1 lb of Pork Loin
16 big Shrimp (boiled, peeled, devein and cut in half--that is why I like to use the large shrimp)
1 bag vermicelli noodle
Plain omelet--cut into thin little stripes
Romaine Lettuce
Cucumber--cut into thin long stripe
Bean Sprout
Mint Leaves
Cilantro

RICE Paper

Direction: 
1. Cook the pork by boiling them then drain and slice very THINLY. Cook the shrimp in boiling water until pink..peel and devein and CUT IN HALF.

2. Cook the Vermicelli noodle according to package.

3. Soften the rice paper by dipping it into some luke warm water--one sheet at a time then lay it on a slat surface (I usually lay it on a plate)

4. Next start to build your roll. Start by placing some lettuce then vermicelli noodle, pork and veggies on the side (corner) nearest to you.

5. Roll the rice paper away from you like a burrito.

ENJOY!!!



Bean Dipping Sauce
Ingredients:
1 Cup Water
1 small Onion--finely CHOPPED
4 Clove of GARLIC MINCED
1/2 Cup Hoisin Sauce
1/4 Cup Bean Sauce ( they have many variety sold at the store--I just used the PLAIN bean sauce, but I have used the one with GARLIC)
1/4 Cup Sugar
3 Tbsp CREAMY peanut BUTTER
****CRUSHED peanut ---use to sprinkle on top


Direction:
In a NONSTICK sauce pan over medium low heat with a little oil ...cook the onion and garlic until translucent. Next mix all the other ingredients into the sauce pan and CONTINUE to STIR until everything is MIX.  Remember to KEEP and EYE on it for it will burn very easy....cook for about 5 minutes and continuing  to stir. Take off heat and let cool and serve up with some crushed PEANUT on top. I usually add some srirache on top also....because I like a little HEAT.
