Ingredients | What Is Nuoc Cham Sauce

½ pound pork tenderloin, cut into thin strips

½ pound prawns, peeled and deveined

¼ pound rice vermicelli noodles

1 (12 ounce) package rice wrappers (such as Blue Dragon®)

1 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves picked from stems

5 spring onions, cut in half

¼ cup fresh mint leaves, or more to taste

¼ head romaine lettuce, cut into bite-size pieces

Directions

Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir pork in the hot skillet until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.

Bring a pot of water to a boil; add prawns and cook until meat is pink. Drain water and slice prawns in half lengthwise.

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in vermicelli and return to a boil. Cook until vermicelli is tender yet firm to the bite, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain.

Fill a large shallow bowl with warm water.

Dip a rice wrapper into the warm water until softened, 3 to 5 seconds. Place rice wrapper on a work surface. Let the rice paper soften for about 30 seconds. Arrange pork, a prawn half, vermicelli noodles, cilantro, spring onions, mint leaves, and romaine lettuce on the bottom third of the wrapper; roll it up halfway, tuck in the sides, and finish rolling the rest of the way. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

For tasty results, marinate the pork first in a combination of fish sauce, sugar, garlic, and shallots for between 4 and 24 hours.
