- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup/125 ml vegetable oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 red Asian shallots, diced
- 10 1/2 ounces/ 300 g minced pork
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 pound, 2 ounces/ 500 g pork terrine, finely sliced
- 2 Lebanese (short) cucumbers, sliced into batons
- 1 bunch perilla, leaves plucked
- 1 bunch fresh Vietnamese mint, leaves plucked
- 1 bunch fresh mint, leaves plucked
- 10 1/2 ounces/300 g mung bean sprouts
- 2 tablespoons fried red Asian shallots
- 1 cup/250 ml nuoc cham (dipping fish sauce)
- 2 bird's eye chiles, sliced
Instructions
- Put the mushrooms in a bowl, cover with water and soak for 20 minutes, then drain and thinly slice.
- To make the batter, combine rice flour, tapioca flour and salt with 20 fluid ounces/ 600 ml cold water. Now whisk until the flour dissolves and forms a smooth batter.
- Heat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, then add 2 tablespoons oil. Fry the garlic and shallots until fragrant, then add the pork, mushrooms, fish sauce, sugar, and pinch of salt and pepper.
- Stir-fry for 4 minutes, then transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Brush a round tray with oil and place beside the stove. Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat, and add enough oil to coat the base of the pan. Pour a small ladleful (2 to 3 tablespoons) batter into the pan, turning the pan in a circular motion to cover the base with a thin layer of batter.
- Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 30 seconds.
- Remove the lid and slide the thin noodle sheet onto your oiled tray. Scoop 1 tablespoon pork mixture onto the noodle sheet, fold 2 sides in, then fold over to form a roll.
- Transfer to a plate. Repeat this process using the remaining batter and pork mixture, adding oil to the pan as necessary.
- Top the rolls with pork terrine, fresh herbs, bean sprouts, fried shallots, and cucumber. Dress with nuoc cham and serve with sliced chile.
