Spring Roll Recipe
INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 red pepper, julienned
• 1 large carrot, julienned
• 1/3 –1/2 long English cucumber, julienned
• 3 green onions, thinly sliced on a diagonal
• small handful of baby spinach, gently bunched up and sliced thinly
• mint
• 6–9 rice papers (I used 22 cm papers)
DIRECTIONS:
• Soak a single rice paper in the hot water until it’s completely soft and flexible. This could take anywhere from a few seconds to more than 30 seconds depending on the brand/type of rice paper. I have best results soaking them for about 30 seconds.
• Gently shake the excess water from the rice paper, lay it straight out onto your work space.
• Let it sit for about 30 seconds to absorb any excess water, The papers won’t stick together properly if they’re really wet.
• Sprinkle some sesame seeds in the center of the wrap.
• Lay the julienned vegetables down in the middle of the wrap. Use approximately 1/5 of each ingredients per wrap (use a little more or a little less depending on how many wraps you want to make and how big you’d like them to be.) I like to fill mine with a little bit of spinach, lots of cucumber and carrot, a little red pepper, and lots of tofu topped with a sprinkle of green onion.
• Try to keep the fillings laid neatly, making sure to leave ample room on each side to easily fold the wrap.
