Vegetarian Spring Rolls

June 10, 2010 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 15 Comments

Vegetarian Spring Rolls ~ Color me bad with some summer vegetables. What is a baker like me doing going savory?

Vegetarian Springrolls

Well since I started my blog 3.5 months ago my family and those who know me have been overflowing with desserts.  As a result, there has been a collective plea for a waistline reprieve. To keep everyone happy, I decided to post a few savory recipes.

Okay, now that you’re in the know, don’t worry my savory recipes will be just as fun.

To start, here is one of my favorites. These Vegetarian Spring Rolls are my go-to recipe whenever I’m asked to bring a savory dish. The punchy colors make for a great presentation. The flavors are versatile and can go from light and refreshing eaten alone or turn deep and full with one quick dip in the sauce.

A few notes:
1. You can sometimes find rice paper in the ethnic section of your supermarket. If you can’t find them there, you will need to hit an Asian food store.
2. Moisten one piece of rice paper at a time. I recommend drying them on flour towels for ease of drying and peeling.
3. Change the vegetables to your preference if need be, or for that matter, change any and all of the filling to suit to your palate preference.

    “flat flour towel.” I assume you meant cloth there.

    Now I need to figure out what hoisin and saracha are.

    My family and friends are constantly screaming at me about the damage I’ve done to their bodies. I tend to just shrug it off. Sheepishly 😛

    These spring rolls sound amazing! I love the filling.

    Heya…this looks so good I am going to have to give it a go. What do you mean by flour towel? I have never heard this term before so I am just wanting clarification.

    Hi Heather,

    Flour towel are towels that are generally lint free. You can find them at William Sonoma, Bed Bath & Beyond. Alternatively, you can just use use heavy duty paper towels.
