Observations

What is the best way to fold shrimp spring rolls?

To fold shrimp spring rolls, soak a rice wrapper in cold water until soft, place it on your work surface, add a generous tablespoon of filling in the center, and then fold the bottom over the filling, followed by the sides towards the center, and roll it up tightly.

Can I use frozen shrimp for this recipe?

Yes, you can use frozen shrimp, but make sure to thaw them completely and pat them dry before using to ensure the filling doesn't become watery.

What can I substitute for rice vermicelli?

You can substitute rice vermicelli with other types of noodles like glass noodles or even thin rice noodles, but the texture and flavor may vary slightly.

How do I know when the oil is hot enough for frying?

You can test if the oil is hot enough by dropping a small piece of bread into it; if it sizzles and turns golden brown in about 60 seconds, the oil is ready for frying.

Can I make the filling ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the filling in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to a day before assembling and frying the spring rolls.
