1/2   cup           chopped peanuts
1     large         tomato

3                   scallions
1/3   cup           chopped fresh mint
1/2   cup           chopped fresh cilantro
1     tablespoon    finely-minced fresh lemongrass
1     teaspoon      dried red chili flakes
1                   garlic clove
1     tablespoon    brown sugar
                    Juice of 2 limes
2     tablespoons   fish sauce
8     ounces        rice vermicelli
                    hot water 12 to 15 minutes
                    Salt

24    large         shrimp

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

In a large bowl, combine the grapefruit, 1/3 cup of the peanuts, the tomato, scallions, mint, 1/3 cup of the cilantro and the lemongrass. In a small bowl, combine the chili, garlic, sugar, lime juice and fish sauce.
Bring a large pot two-thirds full of water to a boil. Drain the noodles and plunge them into boiling water. When the water returns to a boil, drain the noodles and rinse well. Toss the noodles in the bowl with the grapefruit mixture, dressing, salt and pepper. Place the shrimp on top of the noodles, and garnish with the remaining peanuts and cilantro.
