Ingredients
  

  • 8 sheets rice paper or spring roll wrappers
  • 100 g of vermicelli rice noodles
  • 100 g of seafood (shrimp, calamari, scallops, mussels, etc.) (1 cup)
  • 1 cup of shredded fresh spinach
  • 1 grated carrot
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 1 clove of crushed garlic
  • 1-2 sprigs of fresh parsley chopped
  • 2-3 mint leaves chopped

Soy Peanut sauce

  • 4 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon of brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup of peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Soften the butter and mix in the crushed garlic in a saucepan at a medium temperature.
  • Place the seafood in a pan and sauté for 5 minutes with the parsley. Make sure not to overcook as it will become rubbery.
  • Cook the vermicelli rice noodles in a large saucepan according to packet instructions.
  • In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, peanut butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder, lemon juice, and rice vinegar together to make the sauce.
  • Chop the spinach and grate the carrot into small portions
  • Fill a shallow pan with an inch of tepid warm water. Have a plate handy to use for making the wrap, along with all your fillings.
  • Lay the spring roll wrapper (rice paper) gently in the warm water and let it soak in the water for about 20 seconds or so until soft.
  • Move the rice paper to the plate that is dry and lay it flat. Once flat, add in your toppings in the center and fold into a spring roll.
  • Repeat for the remaining spring rolls.
  • Serve at room temperature alongside with the sauce.
