The real star of this dish is the sauce ;) I absolutely love this peanut butter sauce, slightly sweet and tangy!

I prepare these spring rolls with tempeh that I buy in bulk, already cooked and marinated, but you can start with raw tempeh and cook it yourself :)

As for the choice of vegetables, I use what I have on hand: here, bell pepper and carrot. You can add avocado for a creamier texture. However, I prefer not to promote the consumption of this rather problematic food due to its high demand worldwide and the issues in its production. But sometimes, I do get it in my weekly vegetable basket, and this is a great recipe to use it up!

Steps

Prepare the tempeh: if you buy it already prepared, you can just slice it. If you buy it raw, you'll need to boil it for 10 minutes and then sauté it while seasoning. You can follow this recipe for sautéing: https://patateetcornichon.com/recettes/tofu-saute-super-rapide
Peel the carrots. Thinly slice the carrots, lettuce, and bell peppers.
One by one, soak the rice paper sheets in a plate filled with water.
Garnish them with lettuce, carrots, bell peppers, two mint leaves, and two-three slices of tempeh. Roll the spring rolls. To learn how to roll them, I made a video for you on my Instagram!
Prepare the sauce: squeeze the lemons and mix all the ingredients together.
Serve the spring rolls with a bowl of sauce!
