- Soy sauce

Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: rice paper wraps, sliced mango, sliced avocado, julienned cucumber, julienned carrots, fresh mint leaves, peanut butter, soy sauce, and lime juice.
- Prepare the peanut sauce by combining 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and the juice of half a lime in a small bowl. Mix well until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water to reach your desired consistency. Set aside.
- Fill a shallow dish or a large plate with warm water. This will be used to soften the rice paper wraps.
- Take one rice paper wrap and dip it into the warm water for about 10-15 seconds, or until it becomes pliable. Be careful not to soak it for too long, as it can become too soft and tear easily.
- Once softened, lay the rice paper wrap flat on a clean surface or cutting board. Start layering your fillings: place a few slices of mango, avocado, and cucumber on the lower third of the wrap.
- Add a small handful of julienned carrots and a few fresh mint leaves on top of the other fillings.
- To roll the summer roll, fold the bottom of the wrap over the fillings, then fold in the sides, and continue rolling tightly until you reach the top edge of the wrap. Repeat this process with the remaining rice paper wraps and fillings.
- Once all rolls are prepared, arrange them on a serving platter. You can serve them whole or cut them in half for a more appealing presentation.
- Drizzle the prepared peanut sauce over the summer rolls or serve it on the side for dipping. Enjoy your fresh, vibrant Vegan Mango Avocado Summer Rolls!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, you can slice your fruits and vegetables ahead of time. Just keep them in airtight containers in the fridge to maintain freshness.
- Soaking Technique: When soaking the rice paper wraps, dip them just until they are pliable. Too much soaking can make them tear easily, so keep a close eye on them!
- Flavor Variations: Feel free to customize your rolls! Add other ingredients like bell peppers, lettuce, or even cooked tofu for extra protein.
- Peanut Sauce Consistency: If you prefer a thinner sauce, gradually add water until you reach your desired consistency. You can also spice it up with a dash of sriracha or a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
- Presentation Matters: For a beautiful presentation, arrange your rolls on a platter with the peanut sauce in the center for dipping. You can even garnish with extra mint leaves for a pop of color!
- Storing Leftovers: If you have any leftover rolls, store them in an airtight container with a damp paper towel to keep the rice paper from drying out.
