THAI FRESH SPRING ROLLS (WITH VEGETARIAN OPTION)
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Set rice wrappers aside. In a cup, stir together the soy sauce, vinegar, fish sauce (if using), and brown sugar.
- Place rice noodles, shrimp, bean sprouts, Thai basil, coriander, carrots, and spring onions in a large mixing bowl and drizzle the soy sauce mixture over. Toss to mix.
- Then form the rolls.
- Fill a large bowl with hot water (but not boiling, as you'll be dipping your fingers into it). Start by submerging 1 wrapper into the water. It should soften after 30 seconds.
- Remove the wrapper and place on a clean surface. Add another wrapper to the hot water as you fill and roll the first one.
- Place a heaping tablespoon of roll ingredients toward the bottom of the wrapper. Spread out the ingredients horizontally (in the shape of a fresh roll).
- Fold the sides of the wrapper over the ingredients, then bring up the bottom.
- Tuck the bottom around the ingredients and roll to the top of the wrapper.
- To secure the roll: Wet it with a little water on your fingers and press (like sealing an envelope).
- To serve, place your platter or bowl of rolls on the table along with the dipping sauce.
- Eat with your fingers; keep lots of napkins nearby.
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together water, tamarind paste, sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, arrowroot powder dissolved in 3 tablespoons water, 1 clove minced garlic , and dried chile flakes, if desired.
- When near boiling, reduce heat to low, stirring until sauce thickens.
- Taste for saltiness, spiciness, and sweetness, adding more fish sauce (instead of salt), more sugar, or more chile flakes as desired.
- The sauce can be served warm or cold.

I always have this sauce in my fridge - it is the classic dipping sauce for Thai spring rolls (po piah), but it tastes great with any fried appetizer. It will last for a few weeks in the fridge.

Add a little sauce and top with a slice of roasted pork and 2-3 shrimp slices. Fold the bottom of the wrapper up and over the filling. fold the left and right sides in to create a package.

Steps:
- Soak the rice sticks in enough hot water to cover by 1 inch for 15 minutes.
- Bring 1/2 gallon of water to a boil in a large pot set over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Add the shrimp and cook until just firm, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the cooked shrimp to a cutting board and cool for 3 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel, devein, and coarsely chop. Set aside.
- Return the water-soy sauce to a boil. Drain the rice stick noodles and add to the hot soy-water. Cook until tender, approximately 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the lime juice, remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, chili paste, and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl.
- Drain the noodles in a colander. Add the noodles to the lime juice mixture, toss, and set aside while preparing the vegetables.
- Toss the cucumber, carrot, cilantro, and mint together in a small bowl. Transfer any unabsorbed liquid from the noodles to the cucumber mixture and toss to combine.
- Cut the noodles into small 1 to 2-inch pieces with kitchen shears.
- Fill a pie dish with warm water. Dip 1 rice paper wrapper into the water for 10 seconds, then transfer to a cutting board until the wrapper is pliable and slightly tacky, approximately 1 minute.
- Place 1/4 cup of the vegetable mixture on the bottom 1/3 of the wrapper nearest to you. Spoon 2 tablespoons chopped shrimp on top of the vegetables. Top with 1/4 cup noodles. Bring the bottom edge of the wrap tightly over the filling, and then fold in the 2 sides. Finish rolling from bottom to top until the entire wrapper is rolled. Be careful not to tear the rice paper. Place on a parchment-lined half sheet pan and cover with a damp tea towel. Repeat with the remaining wrappers until the filling is gone. Wrap each roll in a lettuce leaf and serve with Soy Ginger Dipping Sauce.
- Add all of the ingredients to a lidded jar and shake well to combine. Serve as a dipping sauce for spring rolls.

THAI SPRING ROLLS
I've been making these since I was a young girl- My husband and all his friends get really excited when I tell them I will be making these. They may be made in advance, frozen, then deep fried straight from the freezer. Seasonings can be easily varied or substituted- except for the prepared mustard.(note: when freezing- freeze single layers in a freezer bag, or in a tupperware with the layers separated by plastic wrap)

Steps:
- Soak bean thread noodles in warm water for 10 minutes, drain, and cut into approximately 1" sections.
- Mix ground pork, noodles, vegetables, and seasonings in a large bowl.
- Place 2 tsp of filling in corner of spring roll wrap, roll to middle, fold in side corners, use the beaten egg to seal the top corner as you finish rolling the spring roll.
- Deep-fry the spring rolls in batches so that they don't stick together, and drain on papertowels. Serve while still hot with Sweet chili sauce for chicken (found in most Asian food stores).
- Alternatively, freeze the rolls prior to deep-frying. Fry when needed, and they will be just as good as if you had rolled them that day.
