  1. 1

    Boil the pork in water with a pinch of salt for 20 minutes until cooked through, then slice into thin pieces.

    Boil the shrimp in the same water for 2-3 minutes until pink, peel, and slice in half lengthwise.

  3. 3

    Cook the rice vermicelli in boiling water for 3-5 minutes, drain, and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.

    Lay the rice paper flat and place a piece of lettuce, a small bundle of noodles, and pork on the bottom third.

    Place 3 shrimp halves (cut side up) in a row across the middle of the paper and add herbs.

  7. 7

    Fold the bottom of the rice paper over the filling, fold in the sides, and place a garlic chive stalk so it sticks out.

  8. 8

    Roll tightly to the end and serve with a dipping sauce made by simmering hoisin, peanut butter, and a splash of water.
