Shrimp Avocado Roll Recipes

Steps:

• Cut off top quarter of each nori sheet along short end.
• Place one sheet of nori with the shiny side down on a sushi mat.
• The long end should be toward you.
• Moisten your hands and mold 3/4 cup rice in a tube like line over nori, leaving a 1-inch border on one long end of the sheet.
• Place 1/4 cup shrimp, 2 carrot strips, 2 slices avocado, 1 green onion top, and 2 cucumber strips along top third of the rice-covered nori sheet.
• Lift the edge of the nori closest to you and fold it over the filling.
• Now lift the bottom edge of the sushi mat and begin to roll toward the top edge.
• You need to press firmly on the roll to keep it tight.
• Continue rolling to the top edge and press the mat at the top to seal the roll.
• Let the roll rest for 5 minutes with the seam side down.
• Repeat the procedure until all 6 sheets of nori are filled and rolled.
• Slice each roll into 8 pieces and serve.

Steps:

• Soak the rice vermicelli in lukewarm water to cover in a bowl, until rehydrated and softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and squeeze the noodles to get rid of the excess water. Bring a pot filled with water to a boil over high heat. Place the rice vermicelli in a sieve and lower it into the boiling water for 5 seconds. Remove the vermicelli and transfer to a bowl. When cool enough to handle, divide the vermicelli into 12 equal portions. In the same boiling water, cook the shrimp until they turn opaque, about 1 minute. When cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and de-vein. Pour lukewarm water, about 1 inch deep, into a square or rectangular dish. Separate and soak 4 wrappers at a time until pliable, about 5 minutes. Place a clean kitchen towel on your work surface, then place each rice paper on the towel. With another kitchen towel, gently blot each wrapper until it is no longer wet but remain sticky. Leaving 1 inch uncovered on the side closest to you and the adjacent sides, place a lettuce leaf, vermicelli portion on top, 3 shrimp halves (overlapped), 2 avocado and 2 mango slices (overlapped), 2 mint leaves, and some cilantro sprigs. Fold wrapper once over the filling, then fold in the sides, and continue rolling tightly to the end. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients to make 12 rolls. Wrap in a damp towel or with plastic wrap until ready to eat. Serve with Chile-Mint Dipping Sauce.
• Combine all ingredients when syrup is cold. The sauce should be tangy, sweet, and spicy.

Steps:

• Stir together avocadoes, tomatoes, onion, and shrimp in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in lime juice. Serve cold.
