I'm a Vietnamese and I find this recipe VERY interesting.

Yes I know, it is NOT the way Vietnamese people normally prepare this dish and the rice paper wrap may be dipped for too long in the water BUT as it's written in the description (did you guys even read the description?), it's Gordon's recipe, it's HIS way of preparing the dish.

So, please have some respect for his work and look on the bright side. Instead of trying to point out and blame him for his mistakes (which are quite insignificant), look at how he's actually making the dish a lot easier to prepare for foreigners who are not familiar with Vietnamese cuisine, not to mention that this is an excellent way to make the ingredients get mixed up more thoroughly inside of the roll so that it may give a better and certainly more fully taste of all the ingredients (especially the herbs) used.

Anyway, this is one interesting way of making these rolls, I would totally give it a try someday.

I have plenty of Vietnamese friends, so I know there are a few different directions he takes with the recipe. However, after I watched this video, I went to my kitchen and made a handful and it's still delicious. So there are no mistakes in this recipe, it's just a different take. He never once claimed it was an authentic Vietnamese recipe, it's just the way he likes to make it. Like my friends also put eggs in their burgers - which I hate - but I don't say to them, "You're doing it wrong!" because it's their way. Live and let live.

As a Vietnamese, i noticed the difference between his way and our traditional Vietnamese way of making spring rolls. But who cares, for real. He does not replicate exactly the same dish. He experienced it, then make his own version, based on his personal idea of how the dish should be like, and that is enough already. It is more Western style of cooking and it is more suitable for you guys too, so yeah, why keep arguing and fighting about the "originality" or "mistakes"! Like hell, there's no such mistake in making the fresh spring roll with different way!

Most youtubers: hey guys welcome back! On this weeks episode


Gordan: first off soak the noodles

[DarkMagicianMan]

As a Vietnamese, i'm so proud that chef Ramsay have brought our cuisine culture to a legendary status.

I'm Vietnamese and I cook at home very often. I think Mr.Ramsay did a good job. He gave one of our traditional dishes a fresh new look and respect. I'm so glad you did this, chef. Although some of your steps were not traditional and not the way we make the dish in Vietnam but you successfully delivered "Vietnamese food spirit" and your respect to our cuisine. Thank you for that.

Dear all the Vietnamese and other people commenting below that "Gordon is doing it wrong.." or sort of:

Everyone has their own taste. Just like the spiciness of Indian food is lessened when it comes to VN. Just because Gordon  made the roll differently doesnt mean he convict a culinary crime or some thing. And for the record, he never said the roll was VN-original/ exclusive! He took his inspiration from it, ok.

And btw, cooking is also a kind of art. And art NEEDS creativity and diversity. So stop bitching and start cooking! I am a Vietnamese, I don't like spring rolls at all.  But after watching this video, I love his recipie so I tried and the result was marvelous! Love it! It's very fresh and no fat! <3 <3 <3 ^^

I spring rolls and vietnamese food: what I usually do is lay out the individual greens and vermicelli in separate rows, roll halfway, place the shrimp on the outside, and then roll it up the rest of the way. That way, the shrimp stays on the outside and it looks really cool. Another thing Ramsey forgot to mention, the rice wrap WILL dry out, so if you're storing it or leaving it out to eat in a little while, cover it with a clean damp cloth or paper towel to keep it moist. Trust me, you don't want to eat spring rolls with a dry wrapping.

1:10 "there's no olive oil in there." Gordon did i hear you right?

[MeggsRated]

I can't even imagine how good his family eats every day.

[weirdasmr]

Compare to some other western chefs who "claims" to make authentic stuff but ended up messing it up this man is significantly better, and i appreciate his feelings for our country

[nganguyen]

the awkward feeling when you think that you can wrap it better than Gordon Ramsay, haha

[Ada-lvme]

Why does Gordon Ramsay talk like he's trying to seduce the food?

[sampurnamukerjee]

Gordon Ramsay has to be one of the most graceful chefs ever..he sprints from one place to another ..like he is singing with his recipes . Respect !

[resortpoint]

His trip to Vietnam was hilarious. Respect for Mr. Ramsay.

[hoangho]

Being Vietnamese, I can see that he does change some things
