Soften rice paper in luke warm water, one sheet at a time, and lay on a flat surface. Use two 8 inch round sheets overlapping each other.Line the top third of the wet pliable rice sheet with three shrimp halves, cut side up, and bottom with lettuce, noodles, cooked cod, carrot, cucumber, cilantro, bean sprouts, and mint leaves. Make sure the ingredients are neatly placed in a straight row. Evenly distributed from one end to the other. Using your second, third and fourth fingers, press down on the ingredients while you use the other hand to fold over both sides of the rice paper. (Pressing down on the ingredients is
important because it tightens the roll.) Continue to press down and roll over shrimp halves. Finish making all the remaining rolls. Garnish with mint, lime, and green onion.
