Tofu Summer Rolls with Peanut Dipping Sauce

• Sweet Chili Sauce
• 2 Tablespoons Creamy Peanut Butter
• 2 Tablespoons Hoisin Sauce
• 1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar
• 1 Tablespoon Water
• Oil, For Frying
• 1 block (about 12 To 14 Oz. Size) Tofu, Cut Into 6 Planks Lengthwise, Each Plank Cut Into 3 Strips
• 1/4 cups Cornstarch
• 1 whole Carrot, Julienned
• 3 whole Scallions, Julienned
• 1 whole Small Cucumber, Julienned
• 1/2 cups Fresh Mint Leaves (or Cilantro, Basil, Or A Mix!)
• 2 cups Fresh Bean Sprouts
• 4 cups Arugula Leaves
• 18 whole Dried Rice Paper Rolls (they May Be Called Vietnamese Spring Roll Wrappers)

1. Prepare the sauces.
2. Fill a small dish with some sweet chili sauce for dipping.
3. In a separate dish, combine peanut butter, hoisin, vinegar, and tablespoon water until smooth.
4. Taste, and adjust the levels to your preference or add more water if the sauce is very thick.
5. Heat about 1/2 inch canola or vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Meanwhile, toss the tofu with cornstarch.
7. When oil is very hot, fry tofu in batches, not crowding the pan, for about 3 minutes on each side until tofu is golden.
8. Let fried tofu drain on paper towels.
9. Arrange the tofu, prepared veggies, a clean kitchen towel, and a flat dish of warm water in one area where you will make the rolls.
10. One at a time, dip a rice paper wrapper in the warm water for about 10 seconds until it starts to soften.
11. Place the wrapper on the kitchen towel you spread out, then mound it with arugula, bean sprouts, carrot, scallion, cucumber, herbs, and a piece of tofu.
12. Wrap the roll like a burrito by pulling the sides over the tofu, then tightly rolling the wrapper around the filling.
13. Repeat until all the ingredients are rolled.
14. Serve immediately at room temperature with the 2 sauces for dipping.
15. Notes: 1.
16. When cutting the veggies, make them about the same length as the tofu strips for easy rolling.
17. 2.
18. When softening the rice paper wrappers, take the paper out of the water before you think its soft enough to roll.
19. It will keep softening out of the water and is less likely to tear if it isnt overly soft.
