How to Make Goi Cuon Vietnamese Cold Spring Rolls

  1. Prepare all your ingredients: wash and chop vegetables, cook your protein (if using), and soak rice papers according to package directions.
  2. Lay a rice paper wrapper on a clean, damp surface. Evenly distribute a small amount of vermicelli noodles across the center.
  3. Arrange your choice of fresh herbs (mint, cilantro, basil) over the noodles. Add a few slices of cooked meat/fish (optional) and some bean sprouts.
  4. Add lettuce and other vegetables, ensuring a balanced distribution. Don't overfill!
  5. Carefully fold the sides of the rice paper inwards, then tightly roll from the bottom up, like a burrito.
  6. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce (hoisin, peanut, or nuoc cham are all excellent choices).
  8. Enjoy your homemade Goi Cuon!
