Ingredients

  • 12 count cooked large shrimp, peeled
  • 8 count rice paper wrappers (8-inch rounds)
  • 8 leaves lettuce leaves (butter or boston)
  • 1 cup fresh mint and cilantro, loosely packed
  • ½ medium cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 3 tbsp creamy peanut butter
  • 1 lime lime (juiced) plus water for sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Fill a wide, shallow bowl with room-temperature water. Dip one rice paper wrapper in water for 5 seconds until pliable, then lay flat on a clean surface.

  2. 2

    Layer a lettuce leaf, a few mint and cilantro leaves, 3 cucumber matchsticks, and 1.5 shrimp on the bottom third of the wrapper, leaving 1 inch on the sides.

  3. 3

    Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, then tuck and roll tightly. Fold in the sides like an envelope as you go.

  4. 4

    Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling until you have 8 rolls. Lay them seam-side down on a plate.

  5. 5

    Whisk peanut butter with 2 tbsp water, juice from the lime, and a pinch of salt until smooth and drizzable. Add water by the teaspoon if too thick.

  6. 6

    Serve rolls immediately with peanut sauce for dipping.
