  • 1 cup Shredded Carrots Contributes a delightful crunch.

  • 2 leaves Fresh Basil Leaves Essential for that aromatic flavor profile.
For the Wrapper
  • 6 pieces Rice Paper Wrappers Soak in warm water for flexibility.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium skillet, heat a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned. Stir in soy sauce and hoisin sauce for an additional 2 minutes.
  2. Add shredded carrots and chopped bell peppers to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes until tender yet crunchy. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for 10-15 seconds until flexible, then lay it on a damp surface.
  4. Place fresh basil leaves in the center of the softened wrapper, spoon in the beef mixture, and fold in the sides before rolling tightly.
  5. Arrange the rolls on a platter. Serve immediately with dipping sauce like peanut or sweet chili.
