Equipment
Ingredients
For the Rolls:
- 12 rice paper wrappers
- 1 medium carrot julienned
- 1 medium cucumber julienned (seeds removed)
- 1 red bell pepper julienned
- 1 green bell pepper julienned
- 1 avocado thinly sliced
- 1 medium golden beet peeled and julienned (substitute with red beets)
- 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens
For the Hoisin Dipping Sauce:
- ¼ cup Hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1-2 tablespoon water warm
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Make the Rolls:
- Fill a large shallow dish or bowl with warm water. Working with one rice paper wrapper at a time, dip it into the water for about 10-15 seconds until it softens. Be careful not to over-soak, as the wrapper can become too delicate to handle.
- Lay the softened rice paper wrapper on a clean, damp surface (like a cutting board or kitchen towel). Place a small handful of spinach or mixed greens in the center, followed by a few strips of each vegetable.
- Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling ingredients.
Make the Sauce and Serve:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, peanut butter, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Gradually add warm water until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. Sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds.
- Arrange the rice paper rolls on a platter and serve with the hoisin dipping sauce on the side.
Notes
- Don’t over-soak the rice paper—10 to 15 seconds is enough to soften it.
- To make ahead, store the finished rolls between damp paper towels in an airtight container for up to 6 hours.
- Hoisin sauce can vary in thickness—adjust with warm water until smooth and dippable.
- Use brown rice paper wrappers for a heartier option and to enjoy more brown rice paper recipes.
