Instructions
Let’s get cooking:
- Heat 1 tbsp. oil in a skillet over medium-high. Once hot, sear your leftover turkey in skillet + add the Omsom starter! Stir to evenly coat everything in the skillet.
- Prepare your wrapping station - set aside all ingredients around a flat surface like a cutting board or large plate. Fill a large bowl with hot water (the bowl needs to be big enough to accommodate for the width of the rice paper.)
- Submerge rice paper in water and rotate quickly. Don’t soak rice paper too much, as it will continue to soften over time.
- Lay rice paper down on a flat surface (feel free to use two overlapped like a venn diagram for a stronger wrap). Start building your spring rolls - at the bottom center of rice paper, about 1 inch from the bottom edge, layer lettuce, rice noodles, turkey, lettuce, cucumber, and herbs on top of each other.
- Fold bottom edge over stuffing and roll tightly up, like a burrito. Once halfway through rice paper, fold sides in tightly. Continue rolling upwards until spring roll is complete.
- Continue rolling until ingredients are all rolled! Serve immediately and enjoy with a side of Mama Pham’s nuoc mam!
