I love springtime with its fresh air, warm temperatures and lengthy days. Spring rolls are the perfect treat during this time of year. They are light, healthy, adaptable; and best of all they accompany the year’s newest bottlings of Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc and Rose of Pinot Noir.
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 rice papers
- 4 large lettuce leaves
- 3 ounces thin rice vermicelli, cooked
- Handful of mint and coriander leaves
- 8 cooked and peeled prawns, halved
- 2 diced green onions
- Peanut sauce
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS;
- Moisten rice paper and keep under damp towel.
- Place a rice paper on another towel and put a lettuce leaf on top; add 1/8 of the vermicelli as well as the mint/coriander mix and green onions.
- Roll the rice paper halfway into a cylinder, then fold ends to cover the filling. Lay shrimp halves on top, then complete the cylinder, sealing it by dampening end of rice paper.
- Repeat 7 times, slice in half, and serve with peanut sauce.
Serves 4 as an appetizer. Don’t forget the 2021 Taft Street Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blank and Russian River 2021 Valley Rose of Pinot Noir!
