Exotic and Delicious! Treat yourself with these Raw Vegan Rolls Recipe

 Rice spring rolls are really popular, not only for their exotic appearance due to the rice wrap rolls that let us see their insides and colors, but because it's also really savoury. And nothing better to highlight the flavor of some rice spring rolls than with a spicy dip made out of peanut butter and red chilies, or the sweet and sour option with soy and lemon, what a treat! Besides being rich and exotic, preparing rice spring rolls or spring rolls in English is easier than you'd think. Put your own personal twist to the recipe and share your thoughts!

Serves: 6 rolls 

Cooking time: 25-30 prepping time

Ingredients:

• 6 rice paper rolls
• 1 hass avocado
• 3 small carrots, shredded or in thin sticks
• ½ jcama sliced in thin sticks
• 1 mango thinly sliced
• 1 cup of purple cabbage in thin sticks
• Red, yellow or orange bell pepper in thin sticks
• 2-3 cups of lettuce, thinly sliced
• 1 a 2 cucumbers, in thin sticks
• 1 cup of fresh mint leaves (optional)
• Pumpkin seeds, peanuts and/or pine seeds

For sesame-fried tofu (non-raw version):

• 1 organic firm tofu block
• 1 tsp. sesame oil
• 1 tbsp. soy sauce (preferably tamari)
• 1 tbsp. sesame seeds

For the Peanut Dip:

Sweet n' sour version:

• ½ cup peanut butter
• 1 tbsp. agave syrup
• 1 tbsp. soy sauce
• 1 tsp. lemon juice

Opción picante:

• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 2 tsp. soy sauce
• 1 garlic tooth, sliced
• 3-4 tbsp. hot water
• ½ tbsp. sriracha sauce or chili flakes (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cut all the ingredients into thin sticks and place them on an extended plate or small bowls so you can have every ingredient on hand when you assemble your rolls. This will give you a little more structure and you'll be able to switch your combinations up!
2. Afterwards, if you chose to make the non-raw version and want a little more protein in your rolls, slice and fry the previously pressed tofu with the soy sauce and cook for 4 minutes or until the tofu is brown and crisp. Then add the sesame seeds and let it rest in the pan a little longer. Once ready, let cool slightly and have them on hand along with your veggies.
3. When you're done with the veggies and tofu, fill an extended plate with water and soak the rice papers in it, until they are well moistened on both sides. Don't let them soak for too long, because they will end up breaking.
4. When the rice papers are already soaked, fill them with veggies, seeds, or tofu, and close them like burritos. It is better to fill the center, close the sides and then roll it all up. Check out the rolling technique in the video we posted on the top! Remember that it's perfectly normal that they do not come out perfect the first time.
5. You're now ready to make the peanut sauce: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the peanut butter with the ingredients you have chosen and stir well until the mixture is a homogenous sauce or dip. For a protein boost, add a little peanuts and integrate well!
6. Serve the rolls with the peanut sauce, and voila. Enjoy homemade spring rolls!
