Fresh Rolls using garden herbs along with nasturtium flowers and an almond dipping sauce. A beautiful and easy recipe to bring to a party!
Almond Sauce
1/4 cup almond butter
1 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tbsp maple syrup
1.5 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp freshly grated ginger
1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
1–2 tbsp water, or more
chili flakes to taste
salt and cayenne to taste
For the Rolls
Nasturtium flower and/or leaves
Fresh herbs like basil, mint, cilantro, parsley
red peppers, sliced
avocado, sliced
mango, sliced
Grated carrots and/or cabbage
Round rice paper sheets
For the Almond Sauce
In a small jar add all of the ingredients except the water. Mix. Add the water 1 tbsp at a time until desired consistency is reached. Taste and adjust.
For the rolls
Make sure all of your veggies are prepped ahead of time so that the rolling is easy. Fill a large bowl with luke warm water to prep the rice paper. Take a clean dish towel and soak it in warm water as well and wring it out and lay it on the table. You will build your rolls on the towel.
Doing one roll at a time, take a rice sheet and soak it in the water for 5-10 seconds (directions may vary depending on the brand you have) and place it on your tea towel. Start by placing the nasturtium flowers face down in the middle. Layer on top the herbs and fresh vegetables. Fold the sides in tightly and then take the bottom and fold up. Finish by rolling it into a tight cylinder. Continue building the rolls until you have your desired amount and arrange on a platter with the almond dip and fresh veggies.
