These Thai fresh spring rolls are a healthy treat. Science says: Shrimp is a good low-fat, high-protein substitute for meat and does not raise cholesterol.

Direction

1. In a bowl of cool water, soak a wrapper until limp. Lay wrapper out flat. Place 1/6 of lettuce down middle of wrapper, then 1/6 of shrimp, cucumber, carrot, and cilantro. Fold over each end and tightly roll the wrapper around the contents, as if making a burrito. Moisten at seam; press to close.
2. Lay on plate, cover with moist paper towel and refrigerate until ready to serve. Then slice in two and serve with dipping sauce, below, or peanut sauce.
3. To make the Quick Thai Dipping Sauce: Combine mirin, soy sauce, vinegar, and ginger in a small bowl.
