Ingredients

  • Dipping Sauce:
  • Zest of 2 Limes
  • 4 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons agave nectar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoons tamarind paste
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Spring Rolls:
  • 4 cups hot water
  • 8 8-inch diameter Vietnamese spring-roll sheets
  • 8 ounces fresh cooked shrimp, medium diced
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger
  • 2 cups bean sprouts
  • 4 green onions, cut into thin strips
  • 2 carrots, peeled, cut into thin strips
  • 1/2 cup (lightly packed) fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped roasted unsalted peanuts
  • Fresh cilantro sprigs, for garnish

Directions

  • To prepare the Dipping Sauce:
  • In a medium bowl, mix lime zest and juice, agave, soy sauce, tamarind paste, and garlic to blend and dissolve the paste.
  • Pour the dipping sauce into serving bowls and aside.
  • To prepare the Spring Rolls:
  • Pour the hot water into a large bowl.
  • Dip 1 spring roll sheet in the hot water for about 30 seconds or until it is pliable. Remove the sheet from the water and place it on a wet towel. Let stand for 30 seconds (if the spring-roll sheet is still stiff, sprinkle it with more water).
  • In a large bowl, mix the shrimp, mayonnaise, ginger, bean sprouts, onions, carrots, cilantro and peanuts. Place an eighth of the shrimp mixture across the bottom third of the spring roll sheet.
  • Fold the bottom edge of the sheet over the filling then fold in the ends of the sheet. Continue rolling the sheet around the filling and into a cylinder. Repeat with remaining sheets and shrimp filling.
  • Using a very sharp large knife, cut the spring rolls crosswise on the diagonal in half.
  • Arrange the spring rolls on a plate. Garnish with the cilantro sprigs and serve with the dipping sauce.
