Fresh Spring Rolls w Peanut Sauce


After my recent trip to Vietnam, I was super thrilled to make the fresh spring rolls!

Recipe:

  • From the asian stores, try to get the rice paper and bean threads (thin noodles)
  • Boil water with one spoon salt and then add the thin noodles, cook for 5mins
  • Drain the water and add more cold water and drain it.
  • Saute with 2 spoons oil, tofu with pepper salt
  • Rest of veggies you can use it raw (parsley, cilantro, lettuce, carrots/cucumber)
  • Dip the rice paper in warm water and lift it immediately up and shake the water off
  • Start setting up all the veggies, noodle, tofu etc and roll it.
  • Serve it with the peanut sauce!

For the peanut sauce :
  •    Grind 5 red chillies, 2 garlic pieces, little sugar and salt for the full dish
  •    Add 2 cups water and let it boil for few mins and turn off.
  •    then add some tamarind and jaggery water to it, mix well. 
  •    Let the liquid cold and then add 2 handful roasted unsalted peanuts
  •    Grind well and sauce is ready!
