Creating these amazing Vietnamese Spring Rolls involves some simple steps that ensure delicious results:

1. Prepare the Rice Noodles: Cook the vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Cook the Shrimp: In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink and opaque (about 2-3 minutes). Drain and let cool, then slice in half.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and julienne the cucumber and carrot. Rinse the lettuce, mint, and cilantro.
4. Soak the Rice Paper: Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds or until pliable and soft. Lay it flat on a clean, dry surface.
5. Add Fillings: Place a lettuce leaf on the lower third of the rice paper, followed by a small amount of noodles, some shrimp, cucumber, carrot, mint, and cilantro.
6. Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the rice paper over the fillings, then roll from the bottom up tightly, creating a neat and sealed roll.
7. Repeat: Continue soaking the rice paper and filling with the desired ingredients until all ingredients are used.
8. Prepare Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl, mix hoisin sauce with peanut butter if desired and garnish with chopped peanuts.
9. Serve: Arrange the rolls on a platter, accompanied by the dipping sauce.

These steps ensure that you can create fresh, delicious Vietnamese Spring Rolls effortlessly!
