Thai- and Vietnamese-style spring rolls (the fresh ones that are wrapped in rice paper and not fried) are healthy treats that are fun to eat. Bursting with crunchy, juicy raw vegetables, leafy herbs, and rice noodles and served with sweet and spicy sauces for dipping and swiping, these two-fisted rolls are delicious and moreish.
As wholesome and satisfying as spring rolls are to consume, they are a bit of a project to make. If you have the time, it’s worth the effort. The key to making fresh rolls is to prepare and assemble all the ingredients in advance. This may include a trip to an Asian market or the international section of your supermarket for certain ingredients, such as the rice noodles and paper wraps and special condiments for the dips. Once you assemble the ingredients, you are ready to roll.
