Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Fresh Vegetable Spring Rolls
  1. Start by cooking the vermicelli noodles according to the package directions, usually boiling for about 3-4 minutes. Rinse under cold water.
  2. Dampen a clean kitchen towel and lay it flat on your work surface to create a non-stick area.
  3. Fill a shallow dish with warm water and submerge a rice paper wrapper for about 15 seconds until it becomes pliable.
  4. Near the center of the wrapper, layer a small amount of cooled vermicelli noodles, followed by your selected vegetables, tofu, and fresh herbs.
  5. Starting from the bottom, carefully fold the sides of the wrapper inwards, then roll the wrapper upward to enclose the fillings.
  6. Continue the process with the remaining wrappers and filling ingredients, ensuring each roll is tightly sealed.
  7. Serve your Fresh Vegetable Spring Rolls immediately with the creamy peanut sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
