Spring Rolls

written by Agata / photos by Agata

Nutritious, light and fresh at the same time, that's why I love spring rolls. No unhealthy frying makes them a perfect replacement for salad or just a healthy snack.

Spring is finally kicking off and I tend to pick lighter options for my lunch more often. Spring rolls are one of them, not only because they are healthy, but they are delicious too. Usually I change the filling, depending of the contents of my fridge. Preparation is simplier than it sounds, so don't discourage yourself.

INGREDIENTS:

10 sheets of round rice paper

30 cooked prawns

small packet of vermicelli noodles

small lettuce

10 broccoli stalks

fresh mint leaves

for peanut sauce:

1 tbsp soy sauce

3 tbsp water

2 tbsp peanut butter

1 garlic clove

pinch of  hot pepper

1 tbsp coconut oil

DIRECTIONS:

 1. Cook vermicelli noodles as directed on package

2. Steam broccoli for 3 mins and pour cold water over them to keep it crunchy, drain

3. In a small pan, stir all peanut sauce ingredients, keep it on low heat until combined and smooth

4. Add prawns to the sauce and cook for another 2 mins

5. Place soaked rice paper on a board and fill it with lettuce, broccoli, noodles, prawns and mint leaves

6. Roll them up like croquettes, serve with spicy sauce or on it's own

Voila!
