Instructions
Creating delicious Thai Basil Beef Rolls is straightforward. Follow these simple steps for a perfect outcome:
1. Prepare Filling: In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
2. Cook Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
3. Season: Once the beef is browned, stir in the soy sauce and fresh Thai basil leaves. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the basil wilts and flavors meld.
4. Soak Rice Paper: Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip each rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10 seconds, until softened.
5. Assemble Rolls: Place a small amount of the beef mixture in the center of each rice paper wrapper. Fold the sides over the filling and roll tightly from the bottom up.
6. Repeat: Continue this process until all the beef mixture is used.
7. Cook Rolls: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little oil, and cook the rolls for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
8. Serve: Transfer the rolls to a serving plate and let them cool slightly before serving.
