Ingredients

Units Scale

PEANUT SAUCE

  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or 2 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1/2 tsp ginger paste
  • Sriracha to taste
  • 12 tbsp warm water

SPRING ROLLS

  • 6 round rice paper wrappers
  • 6 lettuce leave (butter lettuce, romaine lettuce, any sort of non-bitter lettuce works!)
  • 1 cup cooked Maifun thin rice noodles (optional)
  • 1 cucumber, seeded and julienned into thin matchsticks
  • 1 large carrots, julienned into thin matchsticks
  • 2 avocados, cut into wedges
  • 2 scallions, cut into 3 inch long pieces
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil


Instructions

Peanut Sauce

  1. Add peanut butter (crunchy or creamy, you decide), soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and Sriracha into a small bowl and whisk together until well combined. Add warm water to thin out the sauce to your desired consistency. Set aside.

Spring Rolls

  1. Take one rice paper wrapper and dip it into warm water for 5-10 seconds to wet it. Lay the wrapper down on a clean work surface (wooden cutting board works great here) and take your damp hand and rub the wrapper to make sure there are no dry spots on the wrapper. Take a leaf of lettuce and tear it into large 3-inch pieces and place it down on the bottom half of the wrapper. Place a few carrot matchsticks, cucumber matchsticks, avocado wedges, and 2 pieces of scallion (or more) onto the lettuce then top with about 3 tablespoons of rice noodles and top with a basil leaf, fresh mint, and cilantro.
  2. To roll, gently fold over the left and right sides of the rice paper wrapper over the filling. Then fold the bottom part of the wrapper over the filling and gently but tightly roll up the spring roll.
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 with the rest of the wrappers and enjoy with peanut sauce!

Notes

You can use any vegetables you can eat raw that you have in the fridge (cabbage, bell peppers, etc)
