Cold spring rolls (goi cuon)

You can use whatever protein you like here, sub the egg for some cooked lemongrass chicken, tofu, or prawns.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place a small pot of water on to boil. Once boiling, gently lower in eggs using a spoon. Set a timer for 7 minutes. Once the timer is done, remove the eggs and place them in a bowl of cold water. Set aside to cool and set out the rest of your ingredients. Once cool, peel and slice in half.
  2. To assemble, prepare a clean work surface to roll your goi cuon. This should be a plate or benchtop, but not a wooden chopping board as the paper will stick.
  3. Submerge a rice paper sheet in water, then place on your work surface. Place one egg half face down in the centre of the rice paper. Top with a little coriander, mint, vermicelli, cucumber and lettuce. Roll up like a burrito by folding in half, tucking the sides in and rolling up to close. Repeat with remaining sheets until all eggs are used up.
  4. Serve immediately with nuoc cham.
