Let me tell you why we make this recipe in the cold months. To be honest I never know what winter feels like because there are only two kinds of season here in Indonesia. They are dry season and rainy season. So the temperature change is not too significant. Mostly we can eat anything all year round.

Maybe when you tired of typical foods for holiday you can make this for a change. I said MAYBE haha because I have said I really don’t know how to react to winter.

Where I get the inspiration for making Vietnamese Spring Rolls.

Often I and my sisters get the inspiration to make recipes based on what we experienced in our country, especially in our city Bandung. Lately in Bandung there is one small business that sell Vietnamese Spring Rolls and go viral between young people. My friends and my cousin’s friends have already tried it and they said the food is delicious.

I challenge myself to make it, not too similar. We change it a bit, remove and add couple things to perfecting the texture and the taste. And you know what? From my friend’s point of view who already tried the small business one said that overall my version is better because mine has better taste and better texture. Yippy!! I feel so happy and I really want to share this recipe for you guys.

What ingredients we add in the rolls.

Basically you can add anything you like. Remember to use many vegetables. What we use in our recipe:

  • Rice paper 16cm,
  • Shrimp & spicy tuna; this recipe make two kinds of Vietnamese spring rolls,
  • Red & yellow bell peppers; add a sweetness, aroma and texture,
  • Celery sticks; add aroma and texture,
  • Kyuri or Japanese cucumber; add freshness and texture,
  • Lettuce; add fressness and texture,
  • Vermicelli noodles; it gives to Vietnamese rolls body and easy to roll. It also make the rolls tight.

Differ from the small business one, I omit the carrot because it make the rolls really tough to chew. And personally I dislike raw carrot in Vietnamese spring rolls because it dominates the flavors in it. And also I add vermicelli noodles to add some carb, body and texture to the Vietnamese spring rolls.

For the sauce I use store bought sauces because I want to focus on the rolls. Hope someday I will make it myself and share the recipe to you.

What sauces we use:

  • Sesame mayo; it’s our favorite and so delicious,
  • Peanut sauce (you can search on your local supermarket, in asian section).
