A savory sauce to use as a dip with shrimp or spring rolls, in stir-fries and noodle dishes, even on whole wheat pizza crust instead of typical pizza sauce with feta, sun-dried tomatoes, chicken, and vegetables.

SUMMER ROLLS WITH SWEET CHILI DIPPING SAUCE
Steps:
- Put the cellophane noodles, vegetables, cilantro and peanuts in a large bowl; toss with sesame oil and lime juice to give the filling some flavor; season with salt and pepper.
- Pour 3 cups of hot, not boiling water in a large shallow bowl. One at a time, immerse the rice paper wrappers in the hot water for 10 seconds to soften, then place on a slightly damp towel. The rice paper is very delicate, don't soak them any longer or they will break apart. Keep them covered while you work to prevent them from drying out and curling.
- To form the rolls, lay a rice paper wrapper on a flat surface. Grab a small amount of the cellophane and vegetable mixture and lay it across the bottom third. Use less filling than you think you should, if you overstuff the wrapper it will tear. Carefully fold the bottom of the wrapper up to cover the filling. Fold in the left and right sides, then tuck and roll it over once. Lay 2 mint leaves on top, then tuck and roll it over to close the whole thing up like a tight cigar. The mint leaves should show through the transparent rice paper. Arrange the finished rolls on a platter and cover with a damp towel.
- Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce:
- In a blender, puree the rice wine vinegar, fish sauce, hot water, sugar, lime juice, garlic, and chili paste until combined. Pour into a small bowl and serve with the summer rolls.

This simple sauce can be thrown together with items most people have in their pantries! Great for dipping potstickers, Spring rolls or Summer rolls. The Asian hot sauce in the ingredient list below can be subbed with Asian hot chili oil, if you prefer. I like to use Sriracha Hot Chile Sauce.

- To make sweet and sour sauce, in 1-quart saucepan, mix sugar, ketchup, 2/3 cup water, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and the salt. Cook 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar.

- In small skillet, heat oil. When oil is hot, fry egg rolls until crispy. Shake off excess oil.

Tips:
- Soak the rice paper wrappers one at a time in warm water for 8-10 seconds, or until pliable. You can do this in a large bowl or shallow dish.
- Don't overstuff the spring rolls, or they will be difficult to roll and seal. Aim for about 1/2 cup of filling per roll.
- To make the spring rolls easier to roll, use a damp kitchen towel to wipe the cutting board or surface you are working on. This will help prevent the rice paper from sticking.
- Once the spring rolls are rolled, they can be fried, baked, or steamed. Frying is the most traditional method, but baking or steaming is a healthier option.
- Serve the spring rolls with a dipping sauce of your choice. The sweet Asian chili dipping sauce in this recipe is a great option, but you can also use a store-bought sauce or your favorite homemade recipe.
Conclusion:
Spring rolls are a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack that can be easily made at home. With a little practice, you'll be able to roll them like a pro. So next time you're in the mood for something tasty and different, give this recipe a try. Experiment with different fillings and dipping sauces, and you'll soon have your own favorite spring roll recipe.
