Ingredients:

  • 1 pound pork shoulder or beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 10-12 rice paper sheets
  • 1 cucumber, julienned
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • Fresh herbs (cilantro, mint, Thai basil)
  • 1/2 cup roasted peanuts, crushed
  • 1/4 cup fried shallots
  • 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup pickled daikon and carrots (optional)
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup sriracha sauce
  • Cooking oil

Marinade for the Meat:

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the meat: In a bowl, mix the sliced pork or beef with soy sauce, fish sauce, honey (or brown sugar), minced garlic, minced shallot, and black pepper. Marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  2. Prepare the vegetables and herbs: Julienne the cucumber and carrot. Wash and dry the fresh herbs. Crush the roasted peanuts and slice the green onions. If using, prepare the pickled daikon and carrots.
  3. Grill the meat: Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush with cooking oil and grill the marinated meat slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, until cooked through and slightly charred. Let them rest for a few minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Soften the rice paper: Dip each rice paper sheet into warm water for a few seconds until softened. Place on a clean surface.
  5. Assemble the wraps: Place slices of grilled meat in the center of each rice paper sheet. Top with julienned cucumber, carrot, fresh herbs, crushed peanuts, fried shallots, green onions, and pickled daikon and carrots (if using).
  6. Roll up the wrap: Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then tightly roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling completely. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Serve the Grilled Meat Wraps with hoisin sauce and sriracha sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy these delicious wraps as a light meal or snack.
