Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 ounces dried rice vermicelli
18 small to medium shrimp, shelled
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced into 8 slices per half
1 mango, peeled, cut off of the pit and sliced thinly
12 (8-inch) round rice papers
1 head Boston lettuce, leaves separated and ribs removed
24 large mint leaves
1 bunch cilantro sprigs, well rinsed and dried
Chile-Mint Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
1 quart chilled simple syrup (1 quart water plus 2 cups sugar brought to a boil)
1 cup lime juice
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup minced ginger
1/2 cup minced red onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 bunch basil, leaves picked and chopped
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
1/2 bunch mint, chopped
1 roasted red bell pepper, peeled, seeded, and minced
1 roasted yellow bell pepper, peeled, seeded, and minced
2 tablespoons minced jalapenos
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Soak the rice vermicelli in lukewarm water to cover in a bowl, until rehydrated and softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and squeeze the noodles to get rid of the excess water. Bring a pot filled with water to a boil over high heat. Place the rice vermicelli in a sieve and lower it into the boiling water for 5 seconds. Remove the vermicelli and transfer to a bowl. When cool enough to handle, divide the vermicelli into 12 equal portions. In the same boiling water, cook the shrimp until they turn opaque, about 1 minute. When cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and de-vein. Pour lukewarm water, about 1 inch deep, into a square or rectangular dish. Separate and soak 4 wrappers at a time until pliable, about 5 minutes. Place a clean kitchen towel on your work surface, then place each rice paper on the towel. With another kitchen towel, gently blot each wrapper until it is no longer wet but remain sticky. Leaving 1 inch uncovered on the side closest to you and the adjacent sides, place a lettuce leaf, vermicelli portion on top, 3 shrimp halves (overlapped), 2 avocado and 2 mango slices (overlapped), 2 mint leaves, and some cilantro sprigs. Fold wrapper once over the filling, then fold in the sides, and continue rolling tightly to the end. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients to make 12 rolls. Wrap in a damp towel or with plastic wrap until ready to eat. Serve with Chile-Mint Dipping Sauce.
  • Combine all ingredients when syrup is cold. The sauce should be tangy, sweet, and spicy.

Time 1h

Yield 48 pieces, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 sheets nori
4 1/2 cups cooked sushi rice
3/4 lb medium shrimp, cooked,peeled,deveined,and halved (about 1 1/2 cups total)
2 carrots, cut into 12 thin strips
1 1/2 medium avocados, cut into 12 one-quarter inch thick slices
6 green onion tops, each about 7 inches in length
1 cucumber, peeled,halved lengthwise,seeded,and cut into 12 thin strips (7-inch)

Steps:

  • Cut off top quarter of each nori sheet along short end.
  • Place one sheet of nori with the shiny side down on a sushi mat.
  • The long end should be toward you.
  • Moisten your hands and mold 3/4 cup rice in a tube like line over nori, leaving a 1-inch border on one long end of the sheet.
  • Place 1/4 cup shrimp, 2 carrot strips, 2 slices avocado, 1 green onion top, and 2 cucumber strips along top third of the rice-covered nori sheet.
  • Lift the edge of the nori closest to you and fold it over the filling.
  • Now lift the bottom edge of the sushi mat and begin to roll toward the top edge.
  • You need to press firmly on the roll to keep it tight.
  • Continue rolling to the top edge and press the mat at the top to seal the roll.
  • Let the roll rest for 5 minutes with the seam side down.
  • Repeat the procedure until all 6 sheets of nori are filled and rolled.
  • Slice each roll into 8 pieces and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a richer flavor. To check if an avocado is ripe, gently press it. It should give slightly to the touch but not be mushy.
  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold water for 30 minutes.
  • Make sure the shrimp are cooked through: Shrimp are done cooking when they are opaque and pink. Overcooking shrimp can make them tough and rubbery.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the avocado: A sharp knife will help you make clean, even cuts. This will make your avocado shrimp rolls look more professional.
  • Be careful not to overfill the rice paper wrappers: If you overfill the wrappers, they will be difficult to roll and may break.
  • Serve the avocado shrimp rolls immediately: Avocado shrimp rolls are best served immediately after they are made. The rice paper wrappers will start to soften over time, so it's important to eat them while they're still fresh.

Conclusion:

Avocado shrimp rolls are a delicious and healthy appetizer or light meal. They're perfect for parties or potlucks and can be made ahead of time. With a few simple tips, you can make avocado shrimp rolls that look and taste like they came from a restaurant.
