Ingredients
1 bag Arctic Gardens extra-fine green beans
8 to 10 sheets rice paper
24 to 30 fresh mint leaves
1 red pepper, julienned
8 sprigs fresh cilantro
Homemade peanut butter sauce :
3 tbsp (45 ml) peanut butter
3 tbsp (45 ml) boiling water
2 tbsp (30 ml) soya sauce
1 tbsp (15 ml) rice vinegar
1 ½ tsp (7 ml) honey
1 pinch hot pepper flakes
Preparation
- In a microwave-safe bowl, thin the peanut butter with boiling water. Add soya sauce, vinegar, honey and red pepper flakes.
- Microwave the sauce for 30 seconds, stir and let cool to room temperature.
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook beans for 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water to cool. Drain well.
- In a bowl large enough to dip rice paper sheets, fill with hot (not boiling) water.
- Dip a sheet of rice paper into the hot water for about 15 seconds. Drain and put on a cutting board.
- Add toppings to the first third of the sheet leaving 1" (2.5 cm) around the edges. On each, add 3 mint leaves, a few strips of red pepper, a sprig of cilantro and about ½ cup (125 ml) of beans.
- Baste the two ungarnished edges again and starting from the garnishes, roll into a spring roll.
- Repeat for remaining sheets.
- Serve spring rolls with peanut sauce.
