Ingredients to make this recipe
Rice wrappers: Use your favorite brand.
Cucumber: Peeled and cut into matchsticks.
Lettuce: Any lettuce type will work.
Avocado: Sliced avocado. Brush your sliced avocado with lemon juice to prevent it from turning brown.
Mango: The sweetness of the mango makes the most fantastic contrast with the vegetable flavors.
Carrot: Peeled and cut into matchsticks.
Mint leaves: Mint adds freshness. Mint has a very prominent flavor. Add just one leaf on each spring roll.
Dipping sauce: We've used a sweet chili sauce. Peanutbutter sauce works excellent too.
How to make this recipe
Start by preparing all the ingredients.
Fill a large bowl with warm water.
Dip a rice paper wrapper into the water, wait a few seconds, and transfer it to a working surface, like a cutting board.
Lay the vegetables on the bottom ⅓ of the rice paper wrapper. Layer them on top of each other. Start by adding the lettuce, carrot, cucumber, mango, sliced avocado, and one mint leaf.
Roll them out, fold the lower edge over the filling, then fold the sides, and finally, roll it up. Remember to tuck the filling in as you go. Repeat this with all spring rolls.
Finally, cut them in half and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips for making this recipe
- Mint flavor: Note that the mint has a very powerful flavor. If you're not a fan of mint or are not sure that you will like the taste of it inside the spring roll, we suggest you leave it out or replace it with another herb you like.
- Wet the working surface: When the rice paper wrapper starts to soften, it tends to stick more to the surface. To prevent it from sticking too much and consequently tearing, spread a little water over the working surface.
- Storing spring rolls: You can keep these spring rolls in the fridge until serving for up to 4 hours. After that time, the rice paper wrapper will start getting hard.
