Preparation
For Orange Peanut Sauce & Spicy Orange Sambal Mayo:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined. Enjoy with fresh summer rolls.
- To make the summer rolls: Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the noodles until al dente, according to package directions. Drain, and rinse under cool water. Toss the noodles with the sesame oil and salt, and set aside.
- Place a piece of rice paper in hot/warm water for about 3-5 seconds. The sheet should be pliable but not floppy. Carefully lay it flat on a wet cutting board.
- Leaving about 1 inch of open rice paper around the edges add a handful of cooked rice noodles to the lower third of the rice paper, followed by your desired amount of carrots, cucumbers, bell pepper, and cilantro. Place watermelon radish, avocado, or jalapeño on the top third of the rice paper.
- Fold the bottom edge over the fillings, rolling upward just until the filling is compactly enclosed. Fold over the short sides; like you would make a burrito, and finish rolling it up tightly, yet gently to not tear the rice paper. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Enjoy immediately and dip summer rolls in the sauces and enjoy!
