Homemade Fresh Summer Rolls with Peri Peri Sauce (An African Sauce) are healthy and make a wonderful light dinner, lunch or appetizer.

These light and healthy Vietnamese-influenced summer rolls are filled with shallow fried Tofu, rice noodles, mango, and vegetables. Summer Rolls are also known as fresh spring rolls.

Summer Rolls

Summer rolls are surprisingly easy to make at home. You just need a little practice and little patience to roll them. And best thing about this roll is you can customize the filling according to your preference.

Summer Rolls

Before you make your Vietnamese roll, set up a work station. Get everything ready. Here is what I always Put in my summer rolls: Julienned carrots, red and green bell peppers, lettuce, spinach, Mango and fried tofu and yes rice noodles. Everything is wrapped up in rice Wrappers. You can find rice paper at major grocery stores. I usually get them from Sprouts. But I have seen them in Wal-Mart, Fry’s, Safeway as well.

Summer Rolls

Before rolling, the wrapper must be hydrated in room temperature water for not more than a minute. Usually, the back of the Package will give instructions on how to use them. Be careful while rolling, Wrappers are extremely delicate.

Summer Rolls

These are really great for Parties.
