Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Prepare all vegetables and herbs by washing and arranging them on a clean workspace.

  2. Step 2

    Cut pressed tofu into thin strips approximately 0.25 inches wide.

  3. Step 3

    Make the peanut sauce by whisking together peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, sriracha, honey, warm water, and garlic until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Fill a shallow bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for 5 seconds until pliable, then lay flat on a clean surface.

  5. Step 5

    Layer lettuce, vermicelli, cucumber, tofu, carrots, and fresh herbs in the center of the wrapper, leaving space on all sides.

  6. Step 6

    Fold the bottom edge over the filling, tuck in both sides, and roll tightly toward the top, creating a secure cylinder.

  7. Step 7

    Repeat with remaining rice paper wrappers and filling ingredients until all 12 rolls are complete.

  8. Step 8

    Arrange spring rolls on a serving plate seam-side down and serve immediately with peanut dipping sauce.
