I made these for a themed party and they were great and very fresh tasting! I left out the pork and added carrot and cucumber. I also made some with avocado instead of shrimp. The sauce was a great touch.

My review is for the peanut dipping sauce since I made my own rolls. Here goes MAKE THIS STUFF NOW!!! The sauce is not only easy but really good! I have been looking for a good recipe for this and now my search has ended. Thanks for the recipe!

Only tried the peanut sauce, and it was delicious! Had to up the peanut butter to about 2 tablespoons because the peanut butter I used was extremely chunky (used smart balance). After tasting, I decided to add about a tablespoon of Korean chili paste because I wanted a spicy sauce. Came out just right for me. Used it over a sauteed eggplant dish with thai basil served on nice noodles. The rolls sound great, but I was making a quick lunch. Maybe another time? (Also, whomever got huffy thinking the poster was parading this as a 'Thai' recipe needs to learn a little more about food. The recipe only included the word 'Thai' to refer to the variety of basil used. And thank goodness, because such a different flavor would come out if you used Italian basil instead!)

Easy recipe although it requires many ingredients. I left out the pork, mint, and sprouts since I didn't have any on hand. I added thinly sliced carrots that I needed to get rid of instead. It worked fine. Next time I will add a bit more peanut butter to the sauce. Will definitely make again!

I am just rating the peanut sauce. It was perfect. I didn't warm it. I threw everything in mini food processor and mixed. I added about a tsp of soya sauce and tsp of sweet chili sauce. I will be serving this again. For the meats in the wraps I use a cut up deli chicken and shrimp. I also finely sliced some carrots and cucumber. Even my fussy 8 year old ate 3!

I especially loved the sauce. I've tasted the authentic recipe and the peanut sauce was spot on. I read somewhere to add a chunky peanut butter and it came out pretty well. As for the Pork Loin, this is authentic but I don't care for Pork and omitted it altogether and didn't hurt the recipe. As for the cilantro, I've never had it with the cilantro before and probably wouldn't add it since it is so strong. I'm just glad there's some good Vietnamese dishes on this site. Surprised. Thanks!

Sorry to break the run of rave reviews, but I didn't like these at all, and Husband wasn't impressed either. I personally found the dipping sauce inedible so I made sauce from the "Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls" recipe from this site. This was MUCH better. I'm glad others liked this but I won't be making it again. Thanks anyway.

OMG! Sooooo good. Thai, Vietnamese whatever! It rocks. I made one alteration. After visiting 2 grocery stores and still not able to find the rice wraps and getting hungrier by the minute I decided big lettuce leafs would do and I was right. It was more of a wrap than a roll, but so so so so good (oh and pretty easy too!) Thanks.

Thai Basil (the variety of basil) is used in this Vietnamese dish. I thought the dipping sauce was wonderful, but we like peanut butter so maybe thats it. I skipped the roasted peanuts and just used chunky peanut butter instead, Jiff is made with real roasted peanuts right? We used only the pork as we don't eat shrimp but added carrot slivers and onion to compensate a bit.

Yes, this may not be a "thai" recipe, but almost every thai restaurant that I have ever been to has had these rolls on the menu. They call them "thai basil rolls". Vietnamese or Thai, these roll are delicious. The sauce is fantastic. I have made these when I had no pork, just baby shrimp and have even made them vegetarian. Excellent. They save fairly well if put into a container with some damp paper towels.

My boyfriend loved this recipe! However, he only eats fish so we did it without the pork and that left a lot to be desired for consistency and flavor. I added in a few carrots, daikon radish and cucumbers on my third try with this recipe. The sauce is amazing. My boyfriend says it is better than any of the asian sauces he has at restaurants. Now, I did have to mess with the sauce since I can't use canned hoisin sauce (it has wheat in it and I'm allergic to gluten), so I don't know how much the homemade Hoisin sauce made a difference. I definately suggest trying this recipe. It's good stuff! Also, to everyone saying this is a vietnamese dish - it is both vietnamese and thai. Every thai restaurant around my area serves this dish. In fact, none of the vietnamese restaurants sell it here.

I just made these for a party and they were a hit. I made some with shrimp (used the frozen stuff (no pork-too much work). I also made some with thai flavored tofu for the vegetarians. Added slices of avocado, cucumber and carrot. Used the sauce listed here and offered sweet/sour sauce. I used chunky peanut butter and it worked well.
