Cambodian Summer Rolls and Dipping Sauce image

I like these summer rolls as they are a great alternative to deep-fried egg rolls. They also make a great side for any Asian dish. I also like that they are easy to make and don't take much time. I didn't make any changes to the recipe, however next time I think I will put a little less fresh mint in the rolls. I just felt that the mint was too over powering, but besides that they taste great!!

I wasn't a big fan of these summer rolls. The rice paper wrappers were too thick and chewy, and the filling was bland. The dipping sauce was also just okay.

The summer rolls were good, but the dipping sauce was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices to the sauce.
