Method

  1. 01

    Prepare the vegetables and herbs

    Wash the bean sprouts, lettuce, mint, and cilantro. Cut the cucumber into thin batons and chop the tender part of the Chinese chives; set aside a few whole stems to place in the rolls.

  2. 02

    Cook the pork belly and shrimp

    Cook the pork belly in boiling water for about 20 minutes, until cooked through. Reserve 1 cup of the broth. Cook the shrimp in the same broth until cooked through. Cool both, cut the pork into thin strips, and peel and halve the shrimp.

    20 min
  3. 03

    Cook the noodles

    Cook the rice noodles for the time stated on the package. Drain them well and let them cool.

  4. 04

    Make the peanut sauce

    Heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan and cook the chopped garlic until fragrant. Add the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, and reserved broth. Stir as the sauce reduces and thickens. Remove it from the heat and finish with the chopped roasted peanuts.

  5. 05

    Soften the wrappers and assemble the rolls

    Dip a wrapper in room-temperature water until it can be folded, then lay it on a flat surface. Add lettuce, mint, cilantro, chopped chives, cucumber, bean sprouts, noodles, and pork. Roll halfway, fold both sides inward, add the shrimp halves and a chive stem, then finish rolling firmly without tearing the wrapper. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and serve with the sauce.
