Time 2h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 28

1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed
1 shallot, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons vietnamese fish sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
peanut oil (optional) or olive oil (optional)
1/2 lb fine rice vermicelli (bun)
12 (10 inch) rice paper sheets (banh trang)
1 lb boiled shrimp, sliced in 1/2 lengthwise
1 medium cucumber, halved lengthwise and then thinly sliced on the diagonal
1 1/2 cups thinly shredded romaine lettuce
48 mint leaves
24 fresh cilantro stems
48 sprigs Thai basil
1 carrot, cut into julienne
1 tablespoon peanut oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon chili paste
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup chicken stock or 1/2 cup water, plus
2 tablespoons chicken stock or 2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup unsalted dry roasted peanuts, finely chopped
1 fresh Thai red chili pepper, seeded and thinly sliced (optional)
sriracha sauce, for garnishing (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the pork tenderloin in a bowl with the shallot, garlic, fish sauce, sugar, black pepper, and oil, if using, and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate, turning occasionally, at least 1 hour and up to overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat a grill to high. Grill the tenderloin, turning occasionally, until just cooked through and an instant-read thermometer registers an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Transfer tenderloin to a plate and set aside to cool to room temperature before proceeding.
  • Once cooled, slice tenderloin into 1/8-inch thick slices and set aside, covered and refrigerated, until you are ready to assemble the spring rolls.
  • Prepare the rice vermicelli according to package directions and strain in a colander. Run under cold running water until cool and set aside to drain.
  • Assemble the rolls 1 at a time: Dip 1 spring roll wrapper into lukewarm water and quickly transfer to a clean kitchen towel. (Wrapper will soften within seconds.) Lay 4 shrimp halves in a horizontal line across the center of each wrapper and top with a few tablespoons of cooked (well-drained) vermicelli. Top the vermicelli with 1 or 2 slices of cucumber, 2 tablespoons or so of the shredded romaine, 4 mint leaves, 2 sprigs of cilantro, and 4 basil leaves. Place a few sticks of carrot julienne along the top of the filling ingredients and top with 2 slices of pork. Carefully pull the lower edge of the wrapper up and over the filling. Fold the 2 sides inward over the filling and press to seal. Work carefully so as not to tear the wrapper. Once both sides are folded inward over the filling, roll the spring roll upwards so that the filling is tightly contained and roll up to seal. Set the spring roll aside on a plate, covered with a damp paper towel or damp clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Once you have assembled all of the spring rolls, serve them immediately - either at room temperature or slightly chilled, with the Peanut Sauce on the side for dipping.
  • Peanut Sauce: Heat the oil in a small saucepan and, when hot, add the garlic, chile paste, and tomato paste, and cook until garlic is golden, about 30 seconds. Add the broth, sugar, peanut butter and hoisin sauce and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly before serving. Serve in small bowls, garnished with the peanuts, sliced chiles and optional hot sauce.
  • May be served warm or at room temperature.
  • Yield: about 1 1/4 cups.

PORK & SHRIMP SPRING ROLL WITH PEANUT SAUCE



Pork & Shrimp Spring Roll With Peanut Sauce image

This is Emeril Legasse's recipe from his 2005 television show on Vietnamese cuisine, and includes the ingredients for the fresh rolls called "Goi Cuon" and the sauce called "Nuoc Leo." These rolls turn out exactly like the ones you get in the finest restaurants. You can make the meat and vegetables ahead of time and keep them in the fridge, but only roll what you intend to serve immediately. The prepared rolls will harden quickly after less than 12 hours in the refrigerator. Don't let the long ingredient list scare you away. These rolls are incredibly simple to make, and are very healthy!

Tips:

  • To make the spring rolls easier to roll, use rice paper wrappers that have been soaked in warm water until they are pliable.
  • If you don't have a bamboo mat, you can use a clean kitchen towel to roll the spring rolls.
  • To prevent the spring rolls from sticking together, place them on a lightly greased baking sheet or parchment paper.
  • To make the peanut sauce, use smooth peanut butter for a creamier sauce.
  • If you don't have fish sauce, you can substitute soy sauce or tamari.
  • Serve the spring rolls with a variety of dipping sauces, such as hoisin sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or chili sauce.

Conclusion:

Pork and shrimp spring rolls are a delicious and refreshing appetizer or main course. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of ingredients. The peanut sauce is a perfect complement to the spring rolls and adds a creamy, savory flavor. Whether you are serving them at a party or enjoying them as a quick and easy meal, pork and shrimp spring rolls are sure to be a hit.
