8 oz rice sticks
12 medium-sized shrimp, shelled (but leave tail intact) and deveined
3 lettuce leaves, thinly cut
1/2 small cucumber, cut into thin strips
1 cup fresh bean sprouts
1/2 small carrot, peeled and cut into thin strips
Some cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
Some mint leaves, coarsely chopped
Some perilla leaves, coarsely chopped (optional)
Some Thai basil leaves, coarsely chopped (optional)
3 tablespoons roasted peanuts, coarsely ground

A pinch of turmeric powder
Nuoc Cham (Fish Sauce or Vietnamese Dipping Sauce) Recipe
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/2 cup warm water
1/4 cup sugar + 1 tablespoon sugar (if you like it sweeter)
3 tablespoon lime juice
Method:
Add fish sauce, water, sugar and lime juice in a small bowl and mix well. Make sure the sugar is completely dissolved.

Steps:

  • Cook the rice sticks according to the package instructions. Rinse with cold water thoroughly after cooking, drain in a colander and set aside. Marinate the shrimp with all the ingredients in the BBQ Shrimp Marinade for 30 minutes. Prepare and cut all the vegetables and herbs. Fire up your BBQ pit and grill the shrimp until they are properly cooked. Divide the rice sticks, vegetables and herbs into 3 portions and transfer them into 3 bowls. (The rice sticks should sit on top of the vegetables and herbs). Transfer 4 shrimps into each serving, sprinkle some ground peanuts, and pour some nuoc cham (fish sauce) into the noodles. Serve immediately. Nuoc Cham (Fish Sauce or Vietnamese Dipping Sauce) Recipe Ingredients: 1/4 cup fish sauce 1/2 cup warm water 1/4 cup sugar + 1 tablespoon sugar (if you like it sweeter) 3 tablespoon lime juice Method: Add fish sauce, water, sugar and lime juice in a small bowl and mix well. Make sure the sugar is completely dissolved. Cook's Notes: 1.To jazz up the taste, add some garlic chili sauce and mix well with the fish sauce (nuoc cham) before serving. 2.For the nuoc cham recipe, different brand of fish sauce tastes differently, so adjust the sugar, warm water level to your liking. If it's too salty or strong for your taste, add more water and sugar. 3.For fish sauce, I recommend 3 Crabs brand Fish Sauce.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more fish sauce and chili peppers next time.

This recipe is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably reduce the amount of chili peppers next time.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I often make it after a shrimp boil. It's also a great meal to prep ahead of time. You can cook the shrimp and make the sauce the day before, then just assemble the dish when you're ready to eat.
