These summer rolls are colorful, light, and fun to make, like a breath of fresh air in the hot and humid summer months.

I have always enjoyed eating these rolls at my favorite local restaurant, but since things are different now and we are not dining out, I created these beauties at home for our dinner yesterday.

Usually, they only serve peanut sauce with this, but I made two types of dips, and both of them were so yummy that you could have them with many other dishes.

There are endless possibilities with the vegetable filling, and you can choose whatever you like. You only need to remember to fill just the right amount inside the rice wrap. Otherwise, you won't be able to fold them.

I have used fried tofu sticks, carrots, cucumbers, green apples, red bell peppers, lettuce leaves, and mangoes. I mixed and matched various flavors and textures- sweet, savory, tart, and crunch from the veggies. This was much needed to awaken the senses in these dull days.

Making the sauce was so easy that you all would love it. So, recently, we have been making a sweet Thai chili sauce in which you need to mix two ingredients, and voila! It's done. The great thing is that this is very close in terms of taste to authenticity.

Another sauce I have made is a peanut sauce, where I have mixed peanut butter with a few Asian sauces. It is easy, yummy, and can be made ahead of time.
