Ingredients
  

8 rice paper wrappers

1 ripe mango, peeled and cut into thin strips

1 cup cooked jasmine rice, cooled

1 medium cucumber, julienned

1 cup shredded carrots

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes (optional, for added flavor)

1/2 cup hoisin sauce (for dipping)

1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional, for flavor enhancement)

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Work Area: Gather all ingredients and place them on a clean work surface. This organization will streamline the rolling process.

    Soak the Rice Paper: Fill a large shallow dish or wide bowl with warm water. Gently dip one rice paper wrapper into the warm water for about 10-15 seconds, allowing it to soften but remain slightly firm. Carefully lift the wrapper out and lay it flat on your work surface.

      Layer the Fillings: In the center of the softened rice paper, add a small mound of jasmine rice followed by a few strips of mango, julienned cucumber, shredded carrots, and avocado slices. Top with a few leaves of mint, basil, and cilantro. If desired, sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes to add a delightful crunch.

        Roll It Up: Start by folding in the sides of the rice paper over the filling. Then, from the bottom edge, gently roll the wrapper upward, taking care to keep the filling snug inside without over-tightening to the point of tearing. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and fillings until all ingredients are used.

          Make the Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce with sesame oil, if using. Mix well to blend the flavors, creating a rich and savory dipping sauce.

            Serve: Artfully arrange the summer rolls on a large platter. Serve them with the sesame-infused hoisin sauce on the side for dipping.

              Enjoy: Indulge in the refreshing tropical flavors of your Sweet Mango Rice Summer Rolls—ideal for a light summer appetizer or a satisfying meal!
