Ingredients:

For the Spring Rolls:

  • 12 spring roll rice paper wrappers

  • 1 cup cooked rice noodles (vermicelli), cooled

  • 1 cup carrot, julienned

  • 1 cup purple cabbage, thinly sliced

  • 1 cup cucumber, julienned

  • 1/2 cup scallions (green onions), thinly sliced

  • Fresh cilantro leaves (optional, for garnish)

  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

For the Spicy Sauce:

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari (for a gluten-free option)

  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar

  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

  • 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (adjust to taste for spiciness)

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 tablespoon water (to thin, if needed)


Instructions:

1. Prepare the Rice Noodles:

  • Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and rinse them under cold water to cool them down. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Spicy Sauce:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce (or tamari), maple syrup (or agave nectar), rice vinegar, sriracha sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. If the sauce is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Set the sauce aside.

3. Assemble the Spring Rolls:

  • Fill a large shallow dish or a wide bowl with warm water.

  • Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10 seconds until it becomes pliable.

  • Carefully remove it from the water and place it on a clean, damp kitchen towel or a non-stick surface.

  • On the lower third of the wrapper, layer a small amount of cooked rice noodles, julienned carrots, purple cabbage, cucumber, and sliced scallions.

  • Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then fold the bottom edge over and roll up tightly.

4. Serve:

  • Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.

  • Serve the vegan spring rolls with the spicy sauce for dipping.

  • Garnish with fresh cilantro and mint leaves, if desired.


These Vegan Spring Rolls with Carrot, Purple Cabbage, Scallions, Cucumber, and Rice Noodles are a fresh and vibrant appetizer or light meal. They're best enjoyed with the zesty and spicy dipping sauce for an extra kick of flavor. Enjoy this healthy and colorful dish!
