VEGETARIAN SPRING ROLLS
The best thing about these is they're baked and not fried but they still come out very crispy. I have occasionally "cheated" and fried these, as a couple of the photos show, so if you're in a hurry or just don't mind the calories, please go ahead and shallow fry in a frying pan for a couple minutes on each side. This recipe will give you 12 large spring rolls or 24 if you're using the smaller sized wrappers.

Steps:
- Place the noodles in a bowl and pour over enough boiling water to cover. Let stand for 4 minutes.
- Drain, rinse in cold water and drain again.
- Cut into 2-inch lengths.
- Heat the peanut oil in a wok over high heat.
- Add the garlic, ginger, scallions, beansprouts, cabbage and carrot and fry for a minute.
- Stir in the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine, pepper, cilantro and mint and take off the heat.
- Stir in the rice noodles.
- Arrange the wrappers on the counter, pointing diagonally.
- Spoon a bit of the filling onto the bottom corner of the wrapper.
- Roll the point of the wrapper over the filling, then fold the side points inward over the filling.
- Continue to roll up the wrapper away from you, using a bit of water to seal the roll if needed.

THAI FRESH SPRING ROLLS (WITH VEGETARIAN OPTION)
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Set rice wrappers aside. In a cup, stir together the soy sauce, vinegar, fish sauce (if using), and brown sugar.
- Place rice noodles, shrimp, bean sprouts, Thai basil, coriander, carrots, and spring onions in a large mixing bowl and drizzle the soy sauce mixture over. Toss to mix.
- Then form the rolls.
- Fill a large bowl with hot water (but not boiling, as you'll be dipping your fingers into it). Start by submerging 1 wrapper into the water. It should soften after 30 seconds.
- Remove the wrapper and place on a clean surface. Add another wrapper to the hot water as you fill and roll the first one.
- Place a heaping tablespoon of roll ingredients toward the bottom of the wrapper. Spread out the ingredients horizontally (in the shape of a fresh roll).
- Fold the sides of the wrapper over the ingredients, then bring up the bottom.
- Tuck the bottom around the ingredients and roll to the top of the wrapper.
- To secure the roll: Wet it with a little water on your fingers and press (like sealing an envelope).
- To serve, place your platter or bowl of rolls on the table along with the dipping sauce.
- Eat with your fingers; keep lots of napkins nearby.
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together water, tamarind paste, sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, arrowroot powder dissolved in 3 tablespoons water, 1 clove minced garlic , and dried chile flakes, if desired.
- When near boiling, reduce heat to low, stirring until sauce thickens.
- Taste for saltiness, spiciness, and sweetness, adding more fish sauce (instead of salt), more sugar, or more chile flakes as desired.
- The sauce can be served warm or cold.

VEGETARIAN SPRING ROLLS
Spring rolls, a popular street food in San Francisco chef Charles Phan's native Vietnam, are usually made with shrimp and pork. But in this vegetarian version, adapted from his book The Slanted Door: Modern Vietnamese Food, he uses shiitake mushrooms, tofu and cabbage "to mimic the flavor profile and texture of the shrimp and pork," he explains.

Steps:
- Soak the cellophane noodles in warm water for 20 minutes. Drain the noodles and cut into pieces about 3 inches long.
- To make the filling, in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat, warm the oil until shimmering. Add the garlic and cook until light brown. Add the carrots and celery and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 3 minutes. Add the shiitake and tree ear mushrooms and cabbage and cook, stirring, until the cabbage is wilted, about 5 minutes.
- Add the salt, pepper, and sugar, and stir until combined. Add the bean sprouts and stir for about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cellophane noodles and stir for another minute. Add the fried tofu, stirring gently to combine. Transfer the filling to a colander and set aside until the mixture is well drained.
- Fill a large bowl with very warm water. Dip one sheet of rice paper halfway into the water and quickly rotate to moisten the entire sheet. Lay the wet rice paper on a flat work surface. Spread about 1/3 cup of the filling over the bottom third of the rice paper. Spread about 1/4 cup of the vermicelli over the filling, and top with a few mint leaves. Fold in the left and right sides of the rice paper, then fold the bottom edge up and over the filling tightly and roll toward the top end to form a tight cylinder. Repeat with the remaining rice paper and filling.
- The rolls can be made up to 2 hours in advance. Cover the rolls with a damp towel until ready to serve. Just before serving, cut each roll crosswise into three or four pieces and serve with the peanut sauce.

Steps:
- To make the spring rolls: Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the noodles just until al dente, according to package directions. Drain, rinse them under cool water, and return them to the pot. Off the heat, toss the noodles with the sesame oil and salt, and set aside.
- Fill a shallow pan (a pie pan or 9″ round cake pan works great) with an inch of water. Fold a lint-free tea towel in half and place it next to the dish. Make sure your prepared fillings are within reach. Combine the green onion, cilantro and mint in a small bowl, and stir.
- Place one rice paper in the water and let it rest for about 20 seconds, give or take. You'll learn to go by feel here-wait until the sheet is pliable but not super floppy. Carefully lay it flat on the towel.
- Leaving about 1 inch of open rice paper around the edges, cover the lower third of the paper with a few pieces of butter lettuce, followed by a small handful of rice noodles, some cabbage, and a few strips of carrot, cucumber and jalapeño. Sprinkle generously with the herb mix.
- Fold the lower edge up over the fillings, rolling upward just until the filling is compactly enclosed. Fold over the short sides like you would to make a burrito. Lastly, roll it up. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- To make the peanut sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, rice vinegar, tamari, honey, sesame oil, and garlic. Whisk in 2 to 3 tablespoons water, as needed to make a super creamy but dip-able sauce.
- Serve the spring rolls with peanut sauce on the side. You can serve them whole, or sliced in half on the diagonal with a sharp chef's knife.

GOI CUON (VIETNAMESE COLD SPRING ROLLS)
My friend, Lan, who is Vietnamese, showed me how to make these delicious and healthy spring rolls. These are served cold and are NOT fried. They do require some skill to roll - unless you've made these before, you may want to have extra rice papers on hand in case you tear some! It is crucial to use only fresh herbs etc. in this dish, however you can use any cooked meat or fish combo that you prefer. Vegetarians may omit meat altogether. The prep time given is how long it should take - but first timers may find it takes longer to roll.

Steps:
- Have all meats precooked and cold and the rice noodles prepared already (the noodles should be white, long and at room temp).
- Make sure all veggies and herbs are cleaned, dried, and set out before you start.
- Dip a sheet of rice paper wrapper into water very quickly, no longer than a second or two (or they will get too soggy) and lay flat on a work surface.
- On one edge, lay a small handful of noodles, a few strips of meat, some shrimp, some cilantro and mint leaves, a lettuce leaf, some cucumber strips and bean sprouts, all to taste but don't overstuff.
- Carefully start to roll up eggroll style, tucking in the sides, then continue to roll up-but not too tightly or the spring roll will split.
- These rolls will be thicker than the typical Chinese-style fried eggrolls.
- Combine a few spoonfulls of hoisin sauce with some chopped peanuts to use as a dipping sauce (or serve with prepared spicy fish sauce dip called Nuoc Mam, available at Asian markets).
- Serve immediately- these do not keep and will harden up in the fridge, so it is best to make just as many as you plan to serve (store any extra unassembled fillings in fridge and roll later).
- Note: Please be sure to get the correct spring roll rice papers- these are not the same as wonton/eggroll wrappers, which must be cooked.
- Look for edible rice paper wrappers, rice noodle vermicelli, and hoisin sauce in Asian markets.
