Rollitos de primavera de jícama vietnamitas (Bò Bía)
Bò bía Diga: boh bee-ah
Bò bía são rollitos de primavera frescos no estilo de Saigon recheados com jícama doce e crocante, linguiça chinesa salgada, tiras finas de crepe de ovo e camarão seco. Um lanche de rua e aperitivo popular na Cidade de Ho Chi Minh, esses rollitos de papel de arroz translúcidos oferecem um contraste maravilhoso de texturas e sabores: a doçura natural e o crocante da jícama, a mastigação rica do lap cheong, a delicada salinidade do camarão seco e o ovo macio. Tradicionalmente montados na mesa ou logo antes de comer, eles permanecem perfeitamente crocantes e frescos.

Modo de preparo
Heat 1 tbsp (15 ml) vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced shallots and cook, stirring, until golden and fragrant, 2–3 minutes.
Add the jicama matchsticks, sugar, and salt. Stir-fry 4–5 minutes until the jicama is tender-crisp, slightly translucent at the edges but still crunchy. Transfer to a bowl and let cool completely.
In the same skillet, fry the Chinese sausage slices over medium heat until the fat renders and the edges turn lightly crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside on paper towels.
Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp (15 ml) oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour in the eggs, swirl the pan to make a thin crepe, and cook 1–2 minutes until just set. Slide onto a board, roll up, and cut into thin strips.
Briefly toast the drained dried shrimp in the hot pan for 30–60 seconds until fragrant. Set aside.
Fill a large shallow bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper in the water for 5–8 seconds until pliable but still firm. Lay flat on a clean work surface.
Place a small handful of cooled jicama in the lower third of the wrapper. Top with 2–3 slices of sausage, a pinch of egg strips, some dried shrimp, 2–3 mint leaves, and a few bean sprouts.
Fold the bottom edge over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly into a neat cylinder. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling, keeping finished rolls covered with a damp towel.
For the sauce, whisk together the hoisin sauce, water, rice vinegar, and sambal oelek until smooth. Spoon into small bowls and sprinkle with crushed peanuts.
Serve the rolls immediately with the dipping sauce.
Variantes regionais
Some Saigon vendors add a small amount of shredded carrot or Chinese barbecued pork (char siu) for extra color and sweetness. Modern versions occasionally include a few slices of firm tofu or replace the dried shrimp with fresh shrimp for a milder seafood flavor.
Notas do cozinheiro
- Dip rice paper quickly; it continues to soften after removal from water, so work fast to avoid tearing.
- Prepare all fillings up to 4 hours ahead and refrigerate separately; assemble rolls only right before serving to keep them crisp.
- If Chinese sausage is unavailable, use a mild dry-cured pork sausage, though the flavor will be slightly different.
Sirva com
Hoisin-peanut dipping sauce and extra fresh herbs; traditionally enjoyed as a snack with Vietnamese iced coffee or cold beer.
Antecipe e armazenamento
All fillings can be prepared up to 4 hours in advance and stored separately in the refrigerator. Assemble rolls just before serving to prevent sogginess.
