Tuk's Thai Dipping Sauce & Vegetable Rolls): Submitted by: Vickie | Date Added: 22 Apr 2015 Ingredients:

For the Thai dipping sauce:
1/2 c sugar
2 t salt
1/4 c boiling water
4-5 T vinegar
1 t chili paste
chopped peanuts

For the Thai Vegetable Rolls:
Rice stick noodles, cooked according to package
rice paper
Thai parsley & cilantro
Red leaf lettuce

Cooking Instructions:

To prepare dipping sauce: Pour boiling water over sugar. Add remaining ingredients. Pour into small container until serving.

To prepare vegetable rolls: Pour boiling water in a bowl. Dip a piece of rice paper in the water to soften & lay on plate.
Layer: lettuce, noodles, cilantro, parsley & a spoonful of dipping sauce on top of rice paper. Roll up tightly like rolling egg rolls.

(Cook's Note: It takes practice to roll up the ingredients and make it look like it came from the Thai Restaurant, but they'll taste just as good! I''ve also done it by taking a second piece of rice paper and after soaking, cut it in half and place it on top and in the middle of your whole rice paper to will reinforce the filling from breaking through. To make Vietnamese rolls, use fresh mint and cilantro. Add pork strips and/or a whole cooked shrimp that has been halved lengthwise. )
