From step-by-step food preparation to choosing the right kitchen gadgets and tools, Ready Set Prep is here to help you make great meals with ease. In the veggie spring rolls recipe, chef and author Kate McMillan teaches you how to make spring rolls with fresh vegetables and peanut dipping sauce in just a few simple steps. To begin, use a chef's knife to slice your preferred vegetables into thin strips. This recipe is a great way to use whatever leftover vegetables you have in the fridge, but if you need inspiration, avocado, cabbage and sweet bell peppers are all great options. Next, soften a rice paper wrapper by dipping it in a shallow bowl of water. Take care not to soak the paper for longer than five seconds, as it will continue to soften as you create the rolls. To finish, top the rice paper with your chopped vegetables and roll tightly. Repeat until you have your desired number of rolls. Combine the spring rolls with a peanut dipping sauce to add some extra flavor; for a gluten-free alternative, substitute tamari for soy sauce when creating your dip. Enjoy your veggie spring rolls right away, or, if you are planning to serve them later, cover them with a damp paper towel to seal in the moisture.
