Instructions
- Peanut Dipping Sauce
- In a small saucepan, combine the ingredients together over medium low heat, stirring constantly, just until it comes together in a sauce. It doesn't need to cook, just warm enough to come together.1/3 cup peanut butter, 3 Tablespoons water, 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 Tablespoons soy sauce, 2 Tablespoons honey, 1 Tablespoon sesame oil, 1 garlic clove
- Add more water if you want it thinner.
- As it sits, it might thicker or separate a little, just stir it really good to get it to come back to a nice smooth sauce.

- Remove from the water and place on a cutting board.
- Full the middle third of each wrapper with a small amount of the Vermicelli noodles, and strips of the vegetables and herbs. Do not overfill, and make sure everything you put in the center stays in a nice horizontal line.
- Fold in the sides of the rice roll wrapper over the ends of the filling ingredients.
- Fold down the top of the rice roll wrapper so that the folded sides are tucked in and the fillings are covered.
- Continue to fold/roll the roll together until it is sealed all the way.
- Repeat with the remaining rolls, and then enjoy with the dipping sauce.
