Thai Style Spring Rolls

Spring rolls with basic dipping sauce

Spring rolls are a quick, no cook meal and are surprisingly easy to make. Be sure to make a dipping sauce to serve along with your spring rolls! If you need some extra help, see my pictures showing how to roll spring rolls.

Ingredients:

  • Spring roll wrappers
  • 1/2 cup bean sprouts
  • 1/3 head of green cabbage, chopped
  • 5 green onions, chopped
  • 1 cup thin noodles, pre-cooked (use rice, Chinese or bean thread noodles)
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs (use cilantro, basil or mint, your choice)
  • 1/4 cup carrots, grated or julienned
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ginger, grated (optional)

This recipe is great! I actually grew up eating these spring rolls. My grandmother from Laos used to make these for me when I was little. However, there are some differences: She also included either ground pork or chopped shrimp in the spring roll and used Thai Sweet Chili Sauce for dipping.
