shrimp

jicama

carrot

shallots

Chinese sausages

eggs

sea salt

Thai basil

rice paper wrapper

vegetable oil (divided)

Vietnamese peanut sauce

Prepare the ingredients

Soak the dried shrimp in hot water for 10 minutes, or until softened, then drain. Peel the jicama and slice it into matchsticks. Peel the carrot and slice at a diagonal for more surface area then slice into matchsticks. Peel and thinly slice the shallots.

Cook dried shrimp, jicama and carrots

 Add about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Heat on high. Add sliced shallots and sauté until fragrant (about 20 seconds). Add dried shrimp. Pan fry for another 20 seconds. Add sliced jicama and carrots. Stir evenly and cook for about 15 minutes or until limp. Season with salt then transfer the mixture into a bowl and set aside. Clear the skillet and return to stove.

Cook the Chinese Sausage

Add water to a large nonstick skillet and boil the Chinese sausage for about 5 minutes. Remove from water and once cooled, thinly slice at a diagonal and set aside. Discard water from the skillet and return it to the stove.

Cook the eggs

Add about a tablespoon of vegetable oil to the empty skillet and heat on medium-high. Use a pastry brush or tilt the skillet to spread the oil evenly all over the skillet, including the slides. Add half of the beaten eggs. Swirl it around to get a thin layer. Cook for about 30 seconds or until it is no longer runny. Slide the thin sheet of eggs onto a plate and set it aside. Repeat with another tablespoon of vegetable oil and the remaining half of the beaten eggs. Place the two egg sheets on top of each other. Roll them up then thinly slice them into ribbons. Set aside.

Assemble

Wet your rice paper quickly water then transfer it to a large plate or a clean flat surface. Place a few basil leaves towards the bottom of the moistened rice paper. Next, add the jicama, carrot, and shrimp mixture. Add a few ribbons of egg then a few slices of Chinese sausage. Start rolling everything up from the bottom, tucking and rolling until you get halfway up on the rice paper. Fold in the sides then continue to roll up to seal. See illustrations above.
