Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons tamari ((gluten-free soy sauce))
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 6 to 8 sheets rice paper
  • 4 romaine leaves
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 2 carrots (, shredded)
  • 1/2 cucumber (, thinly sliced)
  • 1 bell pepper (, thinly sliced)
  • 1 avocado (, thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro

Instruction

  • Prepare the peanut sauce, so the flavors can meld as you make the spring rolls. Add the peanut butter, tamari, lime juice, maple syrup, sriracha, ginger, and garlic to a small bowl, and whisk well, until it looks smooth. Add a tablespoon of water, and mix again, until the sauce is silky smooth, with a dip-able consistency. Set aside.
  • To prepare the spring rolls, place a single sheet of rice paper under running water and make sure it's totally coated on both sides. Place the wet sheet of paper on a towel or cutting board, then start adding the veggie fillings.
  • Start with a small piece of romaine lettuce, followed by a pinch of shredded cabbage and carrots, sliced cucumber and carrots, then top it off with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro. Be sure to leave at least an inch of space on the sides and bottom, so you'll have room to roll up the rice paper.
  • Once the fillings are added, grab the bottom of the rice paper and gently pull it over the top of the fillings. Next, you'll fold the two sides over the top of the veggie fillings, as if you're rolling up a burrito. Finally, you'll continue rolling towards the top, until the spring roll is totally wrapped up.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and fillings, then serve right away with the peanut dipping sauce. I like to cut the rolls in half with a sharp knife, so I can dip the center of the rolls directly in the sauce.
