hi every1 oh its to die for try it

Actually, libby, it's not spring onion - it's garlic chive, but you can make rice paper rolls however you like, somewhat like the bastardised versions of sushi.

Traditionally though, rice paper rolls will include lots of green herbs, of which I can only identify by sight, not by name, and yes, that means different varieties of mint, including apple mint and Vietnamese mint. Also, boiled pork belly thinly sliced with prawns (deveined and cut in half length-ways) and egg omelette (which is just egg beaten with a bit of fish sauce instead of salt, and water to thin it out, pan-fried to the thickness of a very thin crepe, then sliced into 1cm strips) is somewhat a staple to the traditional rice paper roll, though this may not be the case with the ones you buy pre-made at the shops because it's an additional cost that an un-knowing Australian would not know about.

And Bill - the lettuce goes on the inside, not the outside. Unless you're Superman.

Where are the minty and fish sauce..Vietnamese love those!

Sounds great, should taste fresh and clean . Sure will make it!

Vietnamese mint is usually included, not ordinary mint, and a fine strip of the green part of spring onion which extents out the top of the roll.

I made a veggo version with the vermecilli, carrot, spring onion and mint leaves. The dipping sauce is yum!

Tasty. Supermarket was out of Thai basil so used mint and added finely sliced carrot and spring onions.

yumm yumm . its so yummy i want more LOLLLLZZZ

It's so simple to make yet so delicious!

sounds good, i changed the filling 2 vegetarian, and yes most rice paper rolls have mint in them but the mint overpowers the filling I find its 2 much :)

Yummo! I used the fine carrot & it finished it off perfectly. Mmmmmmmmmmm...

Most vietnamese rice paper rolls have mint in it when I have bought them at the vietnamese shops

sounds good.ill try this tonight for our mother's day celebration with the whole family.

this is so nice, everyone try some!

sounds good, might give it a try tonight.

Dipping sauce is divine!

I tried this recipe and it was delicious but I found it didn't taste as good a few days later

Some variations include finely shredded carrot for added color and crunch :)
