Ingredients

• 12 pieces Rice paper wrappers
• 200 grams Cooked rice noodles
• 1 large, julienned Carrot
• 1 medium, julienned Cucumber
• 1 medium, julienned Red bell pepper
• 0.5 cup Fresh mint leaves
• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
• 6 large, halved Lettuce leaves
• 0.5 cup Unsalted peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon Chili garlic sauce
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 clove, minced Garlic

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all the filling ingredients by julienning the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper, and have the herbs ready by plucking the mint and cilantro leaves from their stems.

Step 2

Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, then rinse under cold water and drain well.

Step 3

Fill a large shallow dish with warm water. Working with one rice paper wrapper at a time, immerse it in the water for about 10-15 seconds or until it becomes pliable.

Step 4

Place the softened rice paper wrapper on a damp towel or cutting board. Arrange a small amount of rice noodles, carrot, cucumber, red bell pepper, a couple of mint and cilantro leaves, and half a lettuce leaf in the center of the wrapper.

Step 5

Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll it up tightly but gently. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling ingredients.

Step 6

For the spicy peanut sauce, combine the peanut butter, low sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, chili garlic sauce, lime juice, water, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Serve the rice wraps with the spicy peanut sauce for dipping.
