How to Make Spring Rolls

  • Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the vermicelli noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse them under cold water until they are cool and chewy.
  • Set up your workspace with a shallow bowl filled with warm water and have a damp kitchen towel ready.
  • Dip one rice paper wrapper in the warm water for about 15 seconds until it’s pliable, then lay it flat on the damp towel.
  • In the center, place a small handful of noodles, julienned carrot, cucumber, tofu, jalapeño, mango, avocado, and a mix of fresh herbs.
  • Fold the sides of the wrapper over the fillings, then carefully roll it tightly from the bottom to the top.
  • Serve your spring rolls immediately, alongside the homemade peanut sauce.

Notes

Serve with a sprinkle of crushed peanuts for added crunch! These rolls can be enjoyed fresh or stored properly for later use.
