Salad Rolls!

Today I decided to make a video of how to make salad rolls. They are a delicious appetizer or side to have especially during the summer months. They are so fresh tasting and very healthy for you. They are also one of my favorite things to make because they are so easy and they are always so delicious. The dipping sauce also goes very well with the salad rolls, but it does have a spicy taste to it. I also like making salad rolls because you can choose what you want in all the different rolls and how much you want of each type of filling in your salad roll. I hope you enjoy my video below and try them out yourselves so you can see how amazing they are! You can also find the recipe below.

Ingredients:

Rolls

  • 8 round rice paper wrappers (22 cm in diameter)
  • 1 head Boston bib lettuce, leaves separated

Directions:

Rolls
  1. In a large bowl of warm water, soak the rice paper wrappers one at a time until softened; about 10 seconds.
  2. Lay them on a tea towel to absorb some of the liquid and then transfer to a work surface.
  3. Place a lettuce leaf in the center of the rice paper wrapper and then add some sprouts, red peppers, carrots, green onion and crab meat.
  4. Sprinkle with some of the peanuts.
  5. Begin to roll up the wrapper, tucking the ends in as you go.
  6. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
  7. Cut each salad roll in half and serve with the dipping sauce.
