Vietnamese Summer Rolls with Peanut Sauce

Recipe from Chef Sandy Thana.

Ingredients:

Summer Rolls:

  • 3 Ladies’ rice wrappers
  • Green leaf lettuce
  • Cilantro, stems removed
  • Mint, stems removed
  • Filling of choice: julienned cucumber, julienned carrots, julienned bell peppers, tofu, rice noodles

Peanut Sauce:

  • 1/2 c. vegetable broth
  • 1 c. hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 c. creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 c. crushed peanuts
  • Sriracha, to taste

Directions:

  1. Rolls: In a bowl large enough to fit the rice paper, fill with warm water. Dip the rice paper in the water and place the rice paper on a towel or rice wrapper mesh plate. Add the lettuce, cilantro, mint, and whatever fillings you want. Roll from the bottom up using your thumbs to tuck the wrapper into itself. Tuck both sides in and continue rollup up.
  2. Peanut Sauce: In a small saucepan add the vegetable broth, hoisin sauce, and peanut butter and heat until the mixture is completely combined. Serve with crushed peanuts and sriracha.
