Method
- 1 Soak the vermicelli and wood ear mushrooms in warm water for 15 minutes until softened, then drain, cut into shorter pieces, and slice into thin strips.
- 2 Mix the ground pork with vermicelli, wood ear mushrooms, shredded carrots, chopped onions and scallions, crack in an egg, and season with fish sauce and pepper.
- 3 Let the filling rest for 10 minutes to absorb the flavor, then wipe the rice paper with a damp cloth to soften it before tightly rolling it into small individual rolls.
- 4 Deep-fry the spring rolls over medium heat for about 8 minutes until the wrappers are slightly crispy, then remove and drain.
- 5 Fry a second time over high heat for 3 minutes until the crust is golden and crispy, then remove and drain on paper towels.
- 6 Serve hot with sweet and sour fish sauce and fresh vegetables.
