Clean Eating Cold Shrimp and Vegetable Spring Rolls

Clean Eating Cold Shrimp and Vegetable Spring Rolls – a few years back a friend of mine came to my house for the weekend. She loved to cook also so she came with recipes in-house. This has been a party favorite ever since.

Ingredients

12 ounces salad shrimp
3/4 cup fresh cilantro
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
12 inches spring roll skins
3/4 cup coleslaw mix
3/4 cup alfalfa sprouts

Instructions

In a small bowl combine shrimp, cilantro, and green onions.

Fill a small shallow baking pan or cake pan with warm water. Working with 4 sheets of rice paper at a time, immerse them in water and let them stand until very pliable, about 45 seconds.

Carefully arrange soaked sheets in a single layer on paper towels to drain. Working with 1 soaked sheet at a time and keeping remaining sheets covered with dampened paper towels, put the sheet on a clean dry work surface and arrange coleslaw mix followed with the shrimp mixture, topped with alfalfa sprouts.

Roll up filling tightly in sheet, folding in 2 sides of the sheet to completely enclose filling, and continue rolling.

Spring rolls may be made 6 hours ahead and chilled.

Just before serving, with a serrated knife cut spring rolls in half diagonally. Arrange spring rolls on a platter and garnish with coriander sprigs. Serve spring rolls with Clean Eating Peanut Sauce with Ginger, Lime and Cilantro.

Clean Eating Peanut Sauce with Ginger, Lime and Cilantro

1/4 cup smooth natural peanut butter
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup cilantro; finely chopped
juice, of 1 lime
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sambal oelek, (hot sauce)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

In the bowl of a food processor or blender, add all of the ingredients from the garlic through to the sambal oelek. Blend until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients, blend and season to taste.

This sauce can also be made by hand, using a bowl and whisk or wooden spoon. Blending the peanut butter with the other ingredients may require some elbow grease. To help it along, try gently heating the peanut butter to make it a little bit runny and easier to stir.

Servings: 12
