Ingredients:
2 Tb tree ear mushrooms
1 cup Soaked, roughly chopped bean thread noodles
1 lb Ground pork
1/2 lb Chopped shrimp or crabmeat
1 Tb fish sauce
1 tsp Each salt & pepper(white)
2 Garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup Each chopped red onion & chives
8 Rounds Rice paper
Beer
Mint, basil & coriander leaves
Lettuce leaves
Cucumber slices

MMMMMDIPPING SAUCE

1/4 cup Minced garlic
1/2 cup Fish sauce
1/3 cup Lime juice
1 tbsp Sugar
1 tsp Sa-te oil
Instructions:
Soak tree ears, set aside bean thread noodles. Chop pork to a finer
consistency, put it in a bowl and add shrimp or crab, fish sauce,
salt, pepper, garlic, onions and chives. Drain and dry the tree ears
and add them. Add the bean thread noodles and blend thoroughly
kneading with the hands.

Brush the rice paper on each side with the beer and set aside.

Cover with a cloth as you work. They take a minute or two to soften.

Put a heaping spoonful of the filling across the bottom third of the
rice skin. Tuck away from you twice. Fold the sides over, then
continue to roll. Seal with beaten egg and cornstarch. Fry in oil
heated to about 350F until golden. Serve with lettuce leaves,
garnishes and dip sauce.

This is from the "Art of Asian Cooking" by Bruce Cost. I was
fortunate to have taken classes from him in Berkeley.
