Rolling It All Together

1. Soak noodles in boiling water for 5–10 minutes until tender, then drain, rinse, and toss with sesame oil and a little salt.

2. Mix green onion, mint, and coriander in a small bowl to create a fresh herb blend.

3. Fill a shallow dish with water and prepare a clean tea towel on the bench.

4. Dip one rice paper sheet in water for 20 seconds until pliable but still firm.

5. Lay the sheet flat on the towel and layer fillings, starting with lettuce, then noodles, cabbage, and your chosen vegetables or protein. Sprinkle with herbs.

6. Fold the bottom edge up, tuck in the sides, and roll firmly until sealed.

7. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and fillings.

8. Whisk together the sauce ingredients with a little water until creamy.

9. Serve rolls sprinkled with sesame seeds, alongside the dipping sauce.

Why These Rolls Are So Nourishing

Fresh herbs such as mint and coriander bring a refreshing lift while also providing natural phytonutrients. Vegetables like red cabbage and carrots add fibre, colour, and crunch, helping to create a balanced and satisfying bite. The miso-almond butter dipping sauce adds richness along with plant-based protein and healthy fats.

Create, Share, and Enjoy

These spring rolls make a beautiful light meal, a picnic addition, or a platter to share with friends. You can change the fillings to suit what is in season or use tempeh, tofu, or chicken for variety. Enjoy them freshly rolled and pair with your favourite dipping sauce.
