Preparation

Step 1

1.To make the peanut sauce: In a food processor, combine the peanut butter, cilantro, water, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and cayenne. Process until smooth. Set aside.

2.To make the rolls: Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the bell pepper, carrot, basil, cilantro, vinegar, mustard, and sesame oil, and toss to combine.

3.One at a time, submerge the spring roll wrappers in tepid water until tender, about 30 seconds. Lay flat on a clean kitchen cloth. Lay a mound of noodle mixture down the center, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Fold 2 sides in over the mound then roll up from the bottom. Repeat with the remaining wrappers. Serve the rolls with the peanut sauce.
