Mrs. Lai stopped by Fu-Wah Market to demonstrate to a loyal customer how to assemble these fresh summer rolls.

>> 8 oz. rice vermicelli, cooked

>> 12 round rice paper wrappers

>> 1 cup mung bean sprouts

>> 1 cup mint leaves

>> 1 cup basil leaves

>> 1 cup cilantro leaves

>> 1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and julienned

>> 2 cups shredded Boston lettuce

>> Peanut sauce

>> 1) Immerse one rice paper wrapper in a shallow dish of warm water for 5 seconds. Remove from water and place on plate.

>> 2) Lay a small handful of vermicelli noodles in the center of the wrap. Add a sprinkling of sprouts, mint, basil, cilantro, cucumber and lettuce.

>> 3) Tuck the bottom half of the wrapper in. Fold in the sides. Finally, firmly roll up the entire roll. Dabble the seam with a sprinkling of water to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers. Serve with peanut sauce.
