Best Mango Summer Rolls With Ginger Peanut Sauce Recipes

SPICY SUMMER ROLLS WITH PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce:
• Whisk together sauce ingredients in a bowl until smooth. Set aside.
• For the summer rolls:
• Put noodles in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling-hot water. Soak noodles for 10 minutes then drain and pat dry. Toss noodles with 1 tablespoon lime juice. Cut noodles with kitchen shears or knife in 5 or 6 places.
• Stir together sugar and remaining tablespoon lime juice in another bowl until sugar is dissolved, then toss with carrots and chiles.
• Gently immerse 1 rice-paper round in a large bowl of hot tap water and let stand until soft and pliable, 15 to 20 seconds. Lift out, letting excess water drip off, then lay round on a work surface, smoothing it out. If round is still very wet, gently blot top with kitchen towel.
• Arrange about 1/4 cup cabbage across center of round, leaving about 1 1/2 inches uncovered on both sides. Top cabbage evenly with 3 tablespoons carrot mixture, then sprinkle with 1 generous tablespoon peanuts. Cover mound of vegetables with a layer each of mint and basil leaves. Top evenly with about 2 tablespoons noodles.
• Fold edge of wrapper nearest you over filling, tucking in filling as tightly as possible, until it touches other side of wrapper, then fold in sides and continue to tightly roll until sealed.
• Put roll on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a damp towel and cover with another damp towel. Make 11 more rolls in same manner, storing them on baking sheet without touching.

MANGO SUMMER ROLLS WITH GINGER-PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• For the spring rolls: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the vermicelli or rice noodles and cook according to the package directions, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water and set aside.
• For the ginger-peanut sauce: Combine the peanut butter, lime juice, maple syrup, soy sauce, ginger and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl and whisk together. Slowly add in hot water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved. (It should be thick but pourable.)
• To assemble the spring rolls: Pour very hot water into a shallow dish or skillet and immerse a sheet of rice paper to soften for about 10 to 15 seconds. Transfer the rice paper to a cutting board and gently spread out the edges, taking care not to tear them. On the bottom third of the wrapper, place a small handful of cooked noodles and a layer of bell pepper, cucumber, mango and a few leaves of basil and cilantro. Gently fold over once, then tuck in the edges and roll until the seam is sealed, like wrapping a burrito. (It's OK if the first one fails; it may take a few attempts to get used to rolling them up.)
• Place seam-side down on a serving platter and cover with a damp towel to keep fresh. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. Serve with ginger-peanut sauce.

CHICKEN AND MANGO SUMMER ROLLS

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over noodles and soak 15 minutes. Drain and rinse. Divide into 8 equal portions. Fill a wide, shallow bowl with cool water. Working with one spring-roll wrapper at a time, soak until pliable, 20 seconds. Transfer to a flat surface and smooth.
• Place a layer of filling on bottom third of wrapper, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Top with a portion of noodles and another layer of filling.
• Fold bottom of wrapper tightly over filling.
• Roll over once, tuck in sides, and finish rolling. If desired, add fresh chives and continue rolling to enclose them. Transfer roll to a plate and cover with a slightly damp paper towel. Repeat to make 8 summer rolls. Serve immediately with dipping sauces, or refrigerate, up to 2 hours.
