Method
 

For the dip
  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Stir until well combined, adding more water to thin the sauce if necessary.
  2. Garnish with chopped peanuts before serving.
For rolls
  1. Dip one rice paper wrapper into warm water. Cold water works too, however it is faster, if we use warm water.
  2. Shake off excess water. Place a slice of chicken, prawn, omelette strip, glass noodles and all the vegetable and herbs in the center of rice paper and wrap like a spring roll.

Notes

The bird eye chili is only necessary if you prefer your sauce to be hot. It would still taste incredible without it!
