These fresh shrimp and veggie rolls are a delightful and healthy appetizer, paired with a tangy peanut dipping sauce.
Prepare the rice paper by soaking one sheet at a time in warm water until pliable.
Don't oversoak the rice paper; it should be soft but not tearing.
Lay the softened rice paper on a clean kitchen towel.
Using a towel prevents the rice paper from sticking to the surface.
Place a few mint, cilantro, and basil leaves on the bottom third of the rice paper.
Arrange the herbs neatly for a visually appealing roll.
Add a piece of lettuce, a slice of cucumber, a few carrot sticks, and a slice of red bell pepper on top of the herbs.
Ensure the filling is compact but not overstuffed.
Place a shrimp on top of the vegetables.
Align the shrimp for an even distribution in the roll.
Fold the bottom of the rice paper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly.
Roll firmly to keep the filling secure.
Repeat with the remaining rice paper sheets and fillings.
Cover completed rolls with a damp towel to prevent drying.
In a small bowl, mix peanut butter, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and water until smooth.
Adjust the water amount for your preferred sauce consistency.
Serve the rolls with the peanut dipping sauce on the side.
Arrange the rolls on a platter for an inviting presentation.
