Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables and Greens:
- 1 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 1 bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced
- 1 cucumber, julienned
- 1 cup mixed greens or baby spinach
- ½ avocado, sliced
- Fresh herbs (mint, basil, or cilantro)
Wrapper:
- 8–10 rice paper wrappers
Peanut Sauce Ingredients:
- ¼ cup natural peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1–2 tablespoons water (to thin as needed)
Instructions
- Arrange colorful vegetable ingredients on a clean workspace, creating an organized mise en place for efficient assembly.
- Warm water in a shallow dish and gently immerse a rice paper wrapper for 10-15 seconds until it becomes translucent and flexible.
- Transfer the delicate wrapper to a flat surface and strategically layer crisp cabbage, julienned carrots, vibrant bell peppers, refreshing cucumber, tender greens, creamy avocado, and fragrant herbs.
- Create a tight, compact cylinder by folding the side edges inward, then rolling from the bottom upward, ensuring a secure and neat wrap.
- Continue the rolling process with remaining ingredients until all wrappers are transformed into beautiful detox roll-ups.
- Craft the accompanying peanut sauce by thoroughly blending liquid and dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, gradually introducing water to achieve a smooth, dippable consistency.
- Plate the rainbow roll-ups and present alongside the rich, nutty peanut sauce for an immediate and appetizing dining experience.
Notes
- Prep vegetables in advance to streamline the rolling process and ensure a smooth cooking experience.
- Soak rice paper wrappers precisely 10-15 seconds for optimal texture, avoiding over-softening which leads to tearing.
- Use a damp cutting board or clean kitchen towel when rolling to prevent sticking and create neat, tight wraps.
- Customize vegetable combinations based on seasonal availability or personal dietary preferences like vegan, gluten-free, or low-carb options.
