Spring rolls can be served as a fun vegan finger food or enjoyed as a main course meal. This vegan spring rolls recipe features cucumber, carrots, greens, and mango.
Vegan Spring Rolls
Ingredients:
- 4 ounces of rice vermicelli
- 16 sheets rice paper
- 1/2 cucumber, halved, seeded, cut into matchsticks
- 1 small carrot, julienned, cut into matchsticks
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 2 ounces baby greens salad mix
- 1/2 ripe but very firm mango, peeled, cut into matchsticks
- Your favorite dipping sauce*
Directions:
- Cook vermicelli in large pot of salted, boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes or until al dente. Rinse under cold water and drain well.
- Lay one rice paper wrap in a large, shallow platter filled with warm water. Leave for several seconds or until softened. Drain and transfer to a dry, flat work surface.
- Add a small portion of the noodles, cucumber, carrots, cilantro, greens, and mango to the center of the wrap.
- Fold the right and left sides of the wrap over the filling, then fold up the bottom of the wrap and continue rolling upwards.
- Place spring roll on a large platter, seam-side down.
- Repeat process with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Serve spring rolls with your favorite dipping sauce.
*Cook’s note: Though it’s a salad dressing, I love these spring rolls dipped in San J Tamari Ginger Salad Dressing. Not only is it vegan-friendly, it is also gluten-free.
