Ingredients
Instructions
  • To dice onions, carrots, and jicamas.
  • Add minced shallots to the pan, sauté until fragrant, add meat and stir-fry until cooked, then add corn, jicamas, carrots, onions, green onions, along with seasoning: 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tsp stock powder, and stir-fry for about 6-8 minutes until vegetables are cooked and infused with flavors.
  • Soften the rice paper by dipping in water. Spread the rice paper out, place 1 tbsp of filling in the center, roll it into a purse shape, use blanched green onion to tie the purse knot, then trim off excess rice paper for aesthetics.
  • Prepare tamarind sauce: Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, add 2 tsp tamarind juice, 3 tbsp water, 2 tsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp sugar to the pan and cook until the sauce thickens. Transfer to a bowl, add some chopped fresh chili and finely crushed peanuts.
