Instructions for Thai Spring Roll

In a medium bowl combine pork and shrimp. Soak mushrooms in warm water for 20 minutes; remove stems and chop caps. Soak bean threads in warm water for 20 minutes, then cut into 1-inch lengths. Add mushrooms, bean threads, onion, carrot, bean sprouts, black pepper, and fish sauce to pork mixture; mix well. Set mixture aside for 15 minutes to allow flavors of ingredients to blend. Dilute sugar in lukewarm water. Place rice paper on a flat surface and brush with water until it is pliable. Place 2 teaspoonfuls of filling. Fold the right side over to enclose filling, then fold over left side. Continue to roll, then seal. Heat oil for deep frying to 375xF. Deep fry few rolls at a time until crisp and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Fry the remaining rolls. Serve by placing a spring roll in a lettuce leaf and top with a mint leaf and cucumber slices.
