Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds Poached Shrimp, cut in 1/2 lengthwise, recipe follows
Tarragon Mayonnaise, recipe follows
1/4 cup finely diced fennel
6 rolls
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 avocado, sliced, see Cook's Note*

1 1/2 pounds raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, tail removed

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Combine shrimp, mayonnaise, and fennel in a medium bowl.

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 ounces dried rice vermicelli
18 small to medium shrimp, shelled
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced into 8 slices per half
1 mango, peeled, cut off of the pit and sliced thinly
12 (8-inch) round rice papers
1 head Boston lettuce, leaves separated and ribs removed
24 large mint leaves
1 bunch cilantro sprigs, well rinsed and dried
Chile-Mint Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
1 quart chilled simple syrup (1 quart water plus 2 cups sugar brought to a boil)
1 cup lime juice
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup minced ginger
1/2 cup minced red onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 bunch basil, leaves picked and chopped
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
1/2 bunch mint, chopped
1 roasted red bell pepper, peeled, seeded, and minced
1 roasted yellow bell pepper, peeled, seeded, and minced
2 tablespoons minced jalapenos
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Soak the rice vermicelli in lukewarm water to cover in a bowl, until rehydrated and softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and squeeze the noodles to get rid of the excess water. Bring a pot filled with water to a boil over high heat. Place the rice vermicelli in a sieve and lower it into the boiling water for 5 seconds. Remove the vermicelli and transfer to a bowl. When cool enough to handle, divide the vermicelli into 12 equal portions. In the same boiling water, cook the shrimp until they turn opaque, about 1 minute. When cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and de-vein. Pour lukewarm water, about 1 inch deep, into a square or rectangular dish. Separate and soak 4 wrappers at a time until pliable, about 5 minutes. Place a clean kitchen towel on your work surface, then place each rice paper on the towel. With another kitchen towel, gently blot each wrapper until it is no longer wet but remain sticky. Leaving 1 inch uncovered on the side closest to you and the adjacent sides, place a lettuce leaf, vermicelli portion on top, 3 shrimp halves (overlapped), 2 avocado and 2 mango slices (overlapped), 2 mint leaves, and some cilantro sprigs. Fold wrapper once over the filling, then fold in the sides, and continue rolling tightly to the end. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients to make 12 rolls. Wrap in a damp towel or with plastic wrap until ready to eat. Serve with Chile-Mint Dipping Sauce.
  • Combine all ingredients when syrup is cold. The sauce should be tangy, sweet, and spicy.
