1. In boiling water, cook the dry vermicelli noodles. Stir continuously until the noodles has reached the desired consistency. NOTE: We cook our noodles until it’s fully hydrated but still has a little bite to it.

2. Carefully remove from heat and cool down the noodles immediately by draining the hot water and replacing it with cold water. Repeat the process until the noodles are completely cooled.

3. Place the noodles in a strainer in appropriate serving sizes.

4. To serve, place the noodles in a bowl with desired amounts of the ground pork, shrimp, carrots, cucumber, romaine, green onions, cilantro, eggrolls, and sweet and spicy fish sauce dip. Mix until combined. NOTE: The portions are all based on your preference. The ingredients as well—so feel free to substitute them for anything that fits your diet (tofu, cabbage, bell peppers, mangos, apples, etc.)

5. Serve with extra sauce on the side. Note: The sauce is a mixture of 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 minced thai chili pepper, 2 tbsp of sugar melted in 1/2 cup of warm water, and 2 tablespoon of fish sauce. Adjust the portions to your taste.

Commentary

This is a fresh and simple dish. As a noodle-loving family, we tend to eat this noodle bowl in the summer often when it's too hot for pho. Because this noodle is cold, it's perfect and filling for the summer nights. And if you have a garden, you can grow many of the herbs used in this recipe so that you can get the fresh herbs all summer long.
