Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Clean and slice all the vegetables. Chop the lettuce, and cut the carrots, bell pepper, and cucumber into matchsticks. Shred the purple cabbage finely.
  2. Fill a large shallow dish with warm water and dip each rice paper wrapper for 10–15 seconds until soft and pliable.
  3. On each rice paper wrapper, layer green leaf lettuce, fresh basil and mint leaves, followed by carrots, cabbage, bell pepper, cucumber, and avocado, sprinkling salt and pepper.
  4. Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, fold in the sides tightly, and roll away from you until secure. Repeat for remaining wrappers.
  5. Arrange the spring rolls on a serving plate and cover them with lightly damp paper towels.
  6. In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, chili garlic sauce, and ginger until smooth and creamy.
