This is a classic fried spring roll filling built from pork mince, vermicelli, cabbage and carrot, so it feels familiar, savoury and satisfying. It is a very useful homemade base recipe because the balance is simple and dependable.

  • Bean thread vermicelli – 50 g
  • Vegetable oil – 1 tbsp
  • Pork mince – 250 g
  • Garlic, finely chopped – 3 cloves

  • Carrot, grated – 1 cup
  • Fish sauce – 2 tbsp

Method

1. Soak the vermicelli briefly, then drain and refresh under cold water.
2. Stir-fry the pork with the garlic until the meat loses its raw colour.
3. Add the vermicelli, cabbage, carrot, fish sauce, sugar and pepper and cook until the mixture is well combined and any excess moisture has disappeared.

5. Fry in batches until the loempias are evenly golden and crisp.
