Add the chopped garlic and chili pepper. You can also add roasted and crushed peanuts if you like.
Rolling the Spring Rolls (gỏi cuốn)
Place a rice paper on a flat surface (if it is dry and brittle, soak it in water to soften it).
Place a small amount of rice vermicelli, fresh vegetables, bean sprouts, cucumber, carrot, pork, fried eggs, pork pate and shrimp on the rice paper.
Place 1-2 sprigs of chives at one end of the rice paper so that when you roll it up, the sprigs will stick out nicely.
Roll tightly, folding the sides of the pancake inwards, then continue rolling to form a log.
The spring rolls are presented in an eye-catching manner.
Taste
Arrange the spring rolls on a plate, serve with the prepared sauce.
