Boil the vermicelli noodles in boiling water for 2-3 minutes or until soft. Drain the water.
Fill a large bowl with lukewarm water and dip one rice paper into the water for a few seconds to soften.
Place the softened rice paper on a damp kitchen towel on a flat surface.
Layer your lettuce, the shredded vegetables and the fresh herbs on the soft rice paper, leaving 3cm on each side of the rice paper uncovered.
Roll the paper around the ingredients until half way, then fold in the sides and finish the wrapping.
Repeat this with the remaining rice wrappers.
Combine all ingredients for the dressing and season to taste.
- Do not over-stuff the spring rolls, ⅓ of filling for the size of your rice paper is enough.
- The more rotation of rice paper you have, the better the fresh spring roll will hold.
