Fresh Vegetable Spring Rolls

Instructions

1. 01

   In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Stir with a fork until the sauce is smooth. Stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of warm water to thin the sauce. Set aside.

2. 02

   To assemble the spring rolls, fill a large pie plate with warm water. Have all the filling ingredients chopped and ready.

3. 03

   Immerse one of the spring roll wrappers in the warm water for about 5+/- seconds. The wrapper should be soft and pliable. Transfer to a work surface.

4. 04

   To the bottom half of the wrapper, stack the filling ingredients. Place a lettuce leaf on the wrapper and stack them on top some of the bean threads, carrots, cucumber, red pepper, bean sprouts, and a few cilantro leaves.

5. 05

   To roll the spring roll, fold in the two sides of the wrapper over the ingredients followed by the end of the wrapper closest to you. Tuck the ingredients in with your fingers to keep the rolls neat and snug. Continue rolling until the spring roll is formed. Continue filling and rolling the remaining spring rolls.

   Serve with the Peanut Sesame Dipping Sauce.
