Fiery Vegetarian Spring Rolls

 Recipe by Chef Amanda Huang

Spring Roll Filling:

• 40 g Tom Yum Kaffir Lime Nut Mix, roughly chopped
• 6-7 pc Vietnamese spring roll sheets
• 1 medium carrot, shredded
• 1 cup of jicama (sengkuang), shredded
• ¼ cup cilantro leaves
• 1 cucumber, shredded
• 1 cup mint leaves

Sauce:

• 2 tbsp creamy natural peanut butter
• 1 tbsp coconut sugar
• 1 tsp chopped red chilli
• 2 tsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp minced ginger
• 1 small clove garlic, minced
• 3 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice.
• 3 tbsp hot water

Preparation:

1. Place all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and stir until well combined.
2. Clean, dry, and prep all the veggies. You are now ready to assemble your spring rolls.
3. Next, prepare a bowl with warm water. Dip a spring roll sheet into the water very quickly (no longer than a second or two) and lay flat on a work surface.
4. Take 2 tsp of the sauce mixture and spread it in the middle of the spring roll sheet (don’t spread too close to the edges).
5. Then, place some chopped Tom Yum Kaffir Lime Nut Mix, jicama, cucumber, cilantro and mint leaves in the middle of the sheet (be careful not to overstuff!).
6. Start by folding the top and bottom sides into the middle
7. On the left-hand side, stretch the sheet around the pile of ingredients, tucking and rolling the edge of the sheet under the pile.
8. Then, tuck the corners in and then continue to roll the rest of the way, making your roll as tight as possible without ripping the sheet.
9. Repeat steps 3-8 until all spring rolls are complete, and consume immediately.
