Ingredients

  • 12 sheets rice paper wrappers (8-inch)
  • 2 medium carrots, julienned
  • 1 medium cucumber, julienned
  • 1 cup fresh mint and cilantro leaves
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sriracha or chili sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Fill a shallow bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper into water for 3-4 seconds until pliable but still firm.

  2. 2

    Lay wrapper flat on a clean surface. Arrange a small handful of carrots, cucumber, mint, and cilantro across the lower third.

  3. 3

    Fold the bottom edge over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly toward the top. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.

  4. 4

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds. Working in batches, add rolls seam-side down without crowding.

  5. 5

    Fry for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Flip and fry the other side for 2 minutes until golden all over.

  6. 6

    Whisk soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha in a small bowl to make dipping sauce.

  7. 7

    Serve spring rolls hot with dipping sauce on the side.
