Description

Ingredients

• 4 imitation crab lengths
• 4 boiled shrimp, chilled
• ⅛ cup shredded carrot
• ¼ cup shredded lettuce
• 1 small avocado
• 1 small cucumber
• ½ cup rice noodles
• 4 spring roll wrappers

Directions

• Set all of your ingredients out on the counter. You want to make as big of a mess as possible.
• Put the rice noodles on to boil.
• Slice shrimp in half. Set aside.
• Peel your cucumber and slice it into ¼-inch thick slices.
• Remove rice noodles as soon as theyre soft (just a couple of minutes in boiling water works for me), strain and run under cold water to cool them. Set aside.
• Submerge 1 spring roll wrapper in water. As soon as the wrapper is soft and flexible, remove it from the water and pat dry with a paper towel.
• Lay the wrapper on a cutting board or some other flat surface thats non-stick but not wax paper--thats a bad idea.
• Place a quarter of your lettuce in the center of the wrapper, in a long line.
• Place a length of crab on top of the lettuce.
• Then a quarter of your carrots on top of that.
• Then a couple of slices of avocado.
• Then a ¼ of your cucumber slices.
• Then ¼ of your rice noodles.
• Then 2 halves of your shrimp.
• Fold the wrapper over on itself lengthwise.
• Fold the ends over.
• Then, roll the stuffed side of the spring roll toward the open end.
• Let the wrapper stick to itself to close things up.
• Dip in a little sweet chili sauce and enjoy, my friends, because this is going to be awesome.
