Vietnamese spring rolls is called Cha gio in Vietnamese. This is one of popular Vietnamese Dish recipes. It also is my favorite food, especially in parties and events. It is really fantastic. They contain a few of my favorite things as crab, shrimp, cabbage and shiitake mushrooms. Since they are deep fried, they are obviously nice and crispy. Wrapped up in a fresh piece of lettuce and dipped in Vietnamese Dipping Sauce, they are absolutely delicious.

In addtion, you can eat wrapped in lettuce with Vietnamese dipping sauce. The reason why I told you should use Beer because it can make the Cha Gio (Vietnamese Spring Rolls) more crispy and delicious. If your paper rice is dried and keeping break when you roll, you can brush all the surface of paper rice to make it more touch (but do not brush too much, it also can makes it breaks). Or, more be carefull, before rolling it, you can wrap all Vietnamese paper rices in banana leaf from 1 to 2 hours to make it touch (Strongly Suggestion). This is also one of many secret tips about Vietnamese dish recipes from my family. Good luck to you and your dish.
