Prepare

## Ingredients

- **24** shrimp, deveined and tails removed
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- some chili flakes (optional)
- **6-8** spring roll rice wrappers
- **1** medium-sized peach, thinly sliced
- **1 small** carrot, peeled and sliced into thin strips
- **2 small** cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
- some fresh mint leaves

Cook

## Instructions

1. Cook the shrimp. Place a skillet over medium heat and add some oil. Place the shrimp, salt, pepper and chili flakes and mix. Cook the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side. Once the shrimp are cooked, remove them from the skillet and transfer them to the plate. Set aside.

2. Fill a shallow dish or wide bowl with warm water. Dip one spring roll rice wrapper into the water and rotate it gently until it becomes pliable and soft. Place it on a clean surface.

3. Arrange 3-4 cooked shrimp horizontally in the center of the wrapper, leaving some space at the edges. Add a few slices of fresh peach, shredded carrot, cucumber slices, and a few mint leaves on top of the shrimp.

4. Starting from the end with the fillings, fold the sides of the rice wrapper over the ingredients. Then, tightly roll the wrapper from the bottom up to enclose the fillings, creating a neat and secure roll. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and ingredients. Serve and enjoy!

From the kitchen

## Chef's Tips & Notes

- Do not overcook shrimp — they are done the moment they turn pink and curl into a loose C-shape. Overcooked shrimp become rubbery and lose their natural sweetness.
- Devein and pat shrimp completely dry before cooking. Excess moisture causes steaming instead of searing, which prevents that gorgeous golden caramelization.
- For maximum flavor, cook shrimp in a single layer in a very hot skillet. Crowding the pan lowers the temperature and steams the shrimp instead of giving them a beautiful sear.

## Chef Ana's Recipe Notes

Peach spring rolls are a delightful twist on traditional spring rolls, incorporating the sweet and juicy flavors of fresh peaches, tender shrimp and crunchy vegetables. It’s light and refreshing!

### What does a spring roll have in it?

A peach spring roll typically contains a combination of the following ingredients:

1. Rice Paper Wrappers: Rice paper wrappers serve as the outer casing of the spring roll. They are thin, translucent sheets made from rice flour and water. These wrappers become soft and pliable when soaked in water and provide a delicate texture to the spring roll.
2. Shrimp: Shrimp is a good source of protein in this dish and it compliments well with the other ingredients adding some tender texture.
3. Fresh Peaches: Ripe and juicy peaches are the star ingredient of peach spring rolls. The peaches are typically sliced thinly into wedges or strips, showcasing their vibrant color and natural sweetness. They add a refreshing and fruity element to the rolls.
4. Carrots: Carrots are often included in peach spring rolls to provide a slight crunch and a pop of color. They are usually shredded or sliced into thin strips. The carrots offer a mild sweetness and contribute to the overall texture and visual appeal of the rolls.
5. Cucumbers: Thinly sliced cucumbers are another common ingredient in peach spring rolls. They bring a cool and crisp element to the rolls, adding a refreshing contrast to the sweet peaches. The cucumber slices offer a subtle flavor and a pleasing crunch.
6. Fresh Mint Leaves: Fresh mint leaves are commonly added to peach spring rolls to provide a burst of refreshing and aromatic flavor. The mint leaves lend a cool and herbaceous note that complements the sweetness of the peaches and adds a layer of freshness to the rolls.

### What country is known for spring rolls?

Spring rolls are commonly associated with multiple countries in Asia, including China, Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia. Each country has its own variation of spring rolls with unique flavors and ingredients. Here’s a brief overview of the spring rolls from these countries:

1. China: In Chinese cuisine, spring rolls are known as “Chūn Juǎn” or “Chūn Bǐng.” They are typically made with thin wheat-based wrappers and filled with a combination of vegetables, meat, or seafood. Chinese spring rolls are often deep-fried until crispy.
2. Vietnam: Vietnamese spring rolls are called “Gỏi Cuốn” or “Chả Giò.” They are made with rice paper wrappers and are typically filled with a mix of fresh vegetables, herbs, rice vermicelli noodles, and either cooked or marinated protein such as shrimp, pork, or tofu. Vietnamese spring rolls are commonly served fresh and are often accompanied by dipping sauces.
3. Thailand: In Thai cuisine, spring rolls are known as “Poh Pia Tod” or “Por Pia Tod.” They are usually made with thin, crispy spring roll wrappers and filled with a mixture of vegetables, glass noodles, and sometimes minced meat or shrimp. Thai spring rolls are typically deep-fried until golden brown and served with sweet and sour dipping sauces.
4. Indonesia: In Indonesian cuisine, spring rolls are known as “Lumpia.” Indonesian spring rolls can be either fried or served fresh. The fillings may include vegetables, tofu, shrimp, or minced meat, and they are often seasoned with Indonesian spices. Indonesian spring rolls are commonly served with peanut sauce or sweet chili sauce.

These variations can also be found in other neighboring countries and have influenced each other over time. Spring rolls have become popular globally and can be found in many different culinary traditions beyond Asia.

### Are Spring rolls healthy?

Peach Spring rolls can be a healthy choice, especially when they are filled with fresh vegetables and lean proteins. Here are some reasons why spring rolls can be a nutritious option:

1. Abundance of Vegetables: Spring rolls are typically filled with a variety of fresh vegetables, such as carrots, cucumbers, and herbs. Thesevegetables provide essential vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and antioxidants. They contribute to a well-rounded and nutritious meal.
2. Low in Calories: Spring rolls are generally lower in calories compared to fried or heavier appetizers. By using rice paper wrappers and incorporating lean proteins and vegetables, you can keep the calorie content relatively moderate.
3. Lean Protein Options: Including lean proteins like shrimp, or tofu in spring rolls can provide a source of high-quality protein. Protein is essential for muscle repair, maintenance, and overall satiety.
4. Healthy Cooking Methods: Spring rolls are commonly made by wrapping ingredients in rice paper and are not fried. This helps to reduce the amount of added fats and oils typically associated with deep-frying.
5. Customization: Spring rolls are versatile, and you can customize them to suit your preferences and dietary needs. You have control over the fillings, allowing you to choose fresh and nutritious ingredients.

The overall healthiness of spring rolls depends on the specific ingredients used and the accompanying dipping sauces. Be mindful of the types and amounts of sauces you use, as some sauces can be high in sodium or added sugars. Opting for lighter and homemade dipping sauce options, such as a citrus-based sauce or a light soy-based sauce, can help keep the overall dish nutritious.

### Substitutions & Variations

As a personal chef who specializes in dietary accommodations, I always encourage my clients to adapt recipes to their individual needs. Here are some practical variations for this recipe:

- **Naturally Gluten-Free:** This recipe is naturally gluten-free since it uses rice paper wrappers. Just double-check that your rice paper brand does not contain wheat starch, as some do.
- **Vegetarian/Vegan:** Skip the shrimp and use extra peach slices, avocado strips, mango, or marinated tofu for a plant-based version that is just as colorful and satisfying.
- **Shellfish-Free:** Replace the shrimp with thinly sliced grilled chicken breast or baked tofu for a delicious shellfish-free alternative that still provides protein.

### Frequently Asked Questions

****How do I keep the rice paper from sticking or tearing?****

Dip the rice paper in warm (not hot) water for just 3–5 seconds — it will continue to soften as you work with it. Lay it on a damp cutting board or clean damp towel, which prevents sticking. Oversoaking is the most common mistake and makes the wrappers tear easily.

****Can I make spring rolls ahead of time?****

Yes, but they are best enjoyed within a few hours of assembly. To store them, place each roll on a damp paper towel in a single layer, cover with another damp paper towel, and wrap the container tightly with plastic wrap. They will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4–6 hours.

****What is the best dipping sauce for peach spring rolls?****

A sweet chili sauce or a peanut dipping sauce pairs beautifully with the sweet peach and savory shrimp combination. You can also try a simple mix of soy sauce, rice vinegar, a touch of sesame oil, and fresh lime juice for a lighter option.

****Can I use other fruit instead of peaches?****

Absolutely! Mango, nectarines, and strawberries all work wonderfully in spring rolls. The key is choosing fruit that is ripe but still firm enough to hold its shape when sliced into thin strips for rolling.
