Fold up the bottom and force the filling downwards to form a log. Then fold in both sides then continue rolling. Store under a damp towel to keep moist. Repeat with remaining rolls. Halve each roll on the diagonal and serve immediately.

SHRIMP AND MANGO SUMMER ROLLS

Steps:

• For the cashew sauce: Whisk the coconut milk, cashew butter, agave nectar, lime juice, fish sauce and chili garlic sauce in a bowl with 1 tablespoon water until smooth.
• For the summer rolls: Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a small pot and add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes. Drain well and let the shrimp cool. Slice the shrimp in half lengthwise.
• Prepare the vermicelli according to package instructions and splash with mirin. Hold the noodles in the colander to allow the mirin to drain and the vermicelli to cool.
• Meanwhile, halve, pit, peel and slice the avocado into 1/4-inch slices. Peel, pit and slice the mango into thin strips and set aside.
• Fill a large bowl with warm water. Place a spring roll wrapper in the water and soak until soft, about 2 minutes. Gently transfer the wrapper to a dry board and blot excess water with a paper towel. The paper can rip easily if it soaks too long, so be sure to remove it from the soaking water as soon as it's pliable.
• Allowing the summer roll ingredients to chill before rolling produces best results. Starting an inch from the bottom of the wrapper, place 3 Thai basil leaves face down in a row. Next, place 3 shrimp face down in a row on the basil. Place 2 slices of avocado across the shrimp, top with some vermicelli and finish with 2 mango slices. Fold in the sides of the wrapper and roll tightly. Place the roll on a tray with the Thai basil-side up and cover with a damp towel. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve the rolls with the cashew dipping sauce on the side.

SUMMER ROLL BOWL

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whisk together the honey, lime juice and jalapeno. Slowly whisk in the canola oil until combined. Season with a pinch of salt.
• For the noodles: Prepare the noodles according to package instructions. After draining, drizzle the noodles lightly with canola and toss to coat.
• For the shrimp: Toss the shrimp with the sriracha seasoning and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
• Combine the lime zest and juice and honey in a small bowl and set aside.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle with the canola oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the shrimp in a single layer and let cook, without moving, until the bottom sides are pink and the shrimp begin to curl, about 2 minutes. Flip each shrimp and allow to cook until barely cooked through, another 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add the honey mixture and butter to the pan. Whisk constantly until the butter melts and the glaze reaches a simmer, another 1 to 2 minutes. Continue whisking until the glaze gets thick and glossy and reduces by about half, about 3 minutes longer. Add the shrimp back in and stir everything together, glazing the shrimp and letting it finish cooking in the hot glaze.
• Divide the vermicelli noodles among 4 bowls. Top with shrimp, carrot, mango and cucumbers. Drizzle with the jalapeno lime dressing, then garnish with the herbs and serve.

SHRIMP SUMMER ROLLS WITH NUOC CHAM

Steps:

• Prepare the rice vermicelli according to the package directions. Drain well and set aside.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and cold water. Boil the shrimp until bright pink, opaque and just cooked, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain and transfer to the ice bath. Once cool, slice each shrimp in half lengthwise, pat dry and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the nuoc cham by whisking together the lime juice, 1/4 cup water, sugar, fish sauce, garlic and chile in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• To assemble the summer rolls, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Fill a large skillet with cold water.
• Working one a time, soak a rice paper wrapper in the skillet until just pliable, 5 to 7 seconds. Transfer the wrapper to a clean cutting board. Line up 3 shrimp halves, pink-side down, in the bottom third of the wrapper. Layer with some scallions, carrots, cucumbers, mint, cilantro and basil. Top with a scant 1/4 cup vermicelli and sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of the peanuts. Fold in the sides of the wrapper, then roll it up like a burrito. Place it on the prepared baking sheet seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling ingredients, making sure the rolls are not touching on the baking sheet.
• Cover the finished summer rolls with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. Store any remaining vermicelli in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• Serve the summer rolls with the nuoc cham on the side for dipping.
