She Has A Healthy Summer Roll Recipe For Anyone Who Loves Asian Cuisine
If you’re not an expert in Asian cuisine, you might be amazed to discover that making a dish that can be found at a Vietnamese restaurant is within the realm of possibility for you.
TikToker Jennifer Medhurst (@theimperfectnutritionist) is a nutritionist, and she’s sharing a recipe for summer rolls, also known as spring rolls.
They are made with rice paper wrappers enveloped around delicious, crunchy vegetables and fresh herbs.
Her recipe is completely doable, and while it may not be one hundred percent authentic, it’s pretty close!
The hardest step is definitely wrapping the rolls tightly enough to ensure none of the fillings fall out.
You might struggle with it at first, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be enjoying these refreshing rolls all summer long.
You’ll need rice paper wraps, avocado, carrots, basil, mint, cucumber, coriander, and butter lettuce. The rolls are also usually dipped in a yummy peanut sauce. Here’s how to make it!
Sauce Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons of peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 tablespoon of rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons of tamari or soy sauce
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 thumb-sized piece of garlic, grated

Directions:
Start by slicing up an avocado and cutting your cucumbers and carrots into baton shapes. Additionally, remove the stems from the herbs.
Then, fill a shallow dish with lukewarm water. Next, briefly submerge a sheet of rice paper in the water and lay it flat on a separate plate.
In the center of the rice paper wrap, arrange three slices of avocado, four carrot sticks, mint leaves, four cucumber sticks, coriander, and lettuce.
Then, roll up the rice paper. Fold the bottom half over the vegetable fillings, fold over the right and left flaps, and roll everything up. Repeat the process to create as many summer rolls as you want to eat.
To prepare the peanut sauce, whisk together the ingredients in a small bowl. Dunk the summer rolls into the peanut sauce, and take a big bite!
