Shrimp Summer Rolls With Asian Peanut Sauce Food

SHRIMP SUMMER ROLLS WITH SESAME-GINGER SLAW

Steps:

• Halve the shrimp lengthwise and toss in a medium bowl with 1/3 cup of the Asian Style Sesame Ginger Dressing. Toss the coleslaw mix, scallions, cilantro and peanuts in a large bowl with the remaining dressing. Set aside while you assemble the summer rolls.
• Fill a wide, shallow bowl with warm water. Dip a wrapper in the water until pliable, about 15 seconds. Place on your work surface and lay a row of shrimp down the center, leaving about an inch on each side. Top with some of the carrots, cucumbers and peppers. Fold the sides in and then roll up like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and ingredients, keeping the finished rolls covered with a damp paper towel as you work.
• Divide the slaw among 4 plates and place 2 summer rolls on each. Serve with more dressing for dipping.

SHRIMP SPRING ROLLS WITH PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the dipping sauce: combine the first 6ingredients in a small bowl and season, to taste, with red pepper flakes. Set aside.
• To make the rolls: in a large bowl combine the bean thread noodles, cabbage, carrots, green onion, and sesame seeds. Place the cilantro, mint and shrimp in separate work bowls nearby.
• To soften the rice paper, fill a pie plate or shallow baking dish with tepid water. Place 2 or 3 rice paper sheets in the water and allow to soak about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove 1 at a time and carefully stack between sheets of paper towels. Continue soaking and draining until you have softened 16 rice sheets.
• Turn over the stack and begin working from the bottom of the stack first. Place a softened rice paper sheet on a clean work surface. On the bottom third of the sheet, pile 1/4 cup of the noodle mixture. Just above the noodles, place a shrimp half, skin side down, and top with a cilantro leaf and mint leaf. Fold the bottom of the paper up and over the noodle mixture, then fold each side toward the center, rolling gently and as tightly as possible from the bottom until completely rolled. Place rolls seam side down on a plate and continue until all ingredients have been used.
• Keep assembled rolls under wet paper towels covered with plastic wrap. Store at room temperature up to 3 hours, do not refrigerate.
