- Cuisine: Vietnamese
- Serves 4–6
Ingredients
4 dried wood ear mushrooms125ml (4 fl oz/1/2 cup) vegetable oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 red Asian shallots, diced
300g (10 1/2 oz) pork mince
1 tsp fish sauce
1/2 tsp sugar
500g (1 lb 2 oz) pork terrine, finely sliced
1 bunch perilla, leaves plucked
1 bunch Vietnamese mint, leaves plucked
1 bunch mint, leaves plucked
300g (10 1/2 oz) mung bean sprouts
2 tbsp fried red Asian shallots
2 Lebanese (short) cucumbers, sliced into batons
250ml (9 fl oz/1 cup) nuoc cham (dipping fish sauce)
2 birdseye chillies, sliced
Batter
200g rice flour
60g tapioca flour
1/2 tsp salt
Preparation
Put the mushrooms in a bowl, cover with water and soak for 20 minutes, then drain and thinly slice.To make the batter, combine rice flour, tapioca flour and salt with 600ml of cold water. Whisk until the flour dissolves and forms a smooth batter.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, then add 2 tablespoons of the oil. Fry the garlic and shallots until fragrant, then add the pork, mushrooms, fish sauce, sugar and pinch of salt and pepper.
Stir-fry for 4 minutes, then transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Brush a round tray with oil and place beside the stove. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat, and add enough oil to coat the base of the pan. Pour a small ladleful (2–3 tablespoons) of the batter into the pan, turning the pan in a circular motion to cover the base with a thin layer of batter.
Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 30 seconds.
Remove the lid and slide the thin noodle sheet onto your oiled tray. Scoop 1 tablespoon of pork mixture onto the noodle sheet, fold two sides in, then fold over to form a roll.
Transfer to a plate. Repeat this process using the remaining batter and pork mixture, adding oil to the pan as necessary.
Top the rolls with pork terrine, fresh herbs, bean sprouts, fried shallots and cucumber. Dress with nuoc cham and garnish with sliced chilli.

Hot Tips
Which oil for which type of cooking
Olive oil has well reported health benefits, however it does burn easily and has a strong flavour that can adversely affect your cooking. Oils with a high flash point (that can withstand high temperatures) include canola, sunflower and peanut. Of these canola carries the least flavour.
