Creating 20 Minute Thai Basil Beef Rolls is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Filling: In a pan over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
2. Add Aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
3. Season the Beef: Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, and oyster sauce to the beef. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
4. Incorporate Vegetables: Stir in the shredded carrots, sliced bell peppers, and fresh Thai basil leaves until they are slightly wilted.
5. Soak Rice Paper: Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrap in the water for about 10 seconds, until pliable but not too soft.
6. Assemble the Rolls: Place the soaked rice paper on a clean surface. Add a spoonful of the beef mixture towards the bottom of the wrap. Fold the sides over and roll tightly from the bottom up.
7. Repeat: Continue the process until you have made all the rolls.
8. Serve: Arrange the rolls on a platter. Serve with lettuce leaves and lime wedges on the side for added freshness.
