INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Gently squeeze the cooked bean thread noodles to release excess
moisture. Chop them coarsely. In a large bowl, toss together the noodles,
cabbage, carrot, and scallions.
2. Fill a 10-inch pie plate with warm water. Submerge one of the rice
papers in the water and soak just until pliable, 30 to 60 seconds. Transfer
to a clean kitchen towel and blot gently to dry. Arrange about 1/4 cup of
the noodle mixture along the bottom third of the rice paper. Distribute 5
or 6 tofu cubes and 2 basil leaves on the noodles. Lift the bottom edge
over the filling, fold the sides toward the center, and roll up as tightly
as possible. Repeat with the remaining rice papers.
3. Serve the spring rolls immediately. Alternatively, refrigerate in a
tightly sealed container for up to 2 days. (Return to room temperature
before serving.) Divide the dipping sauce among several small bowls and
serve alongside.
Makes 10 to 12 spring rolls.
NOTE: "You'll be able to buy the bean thread noodles and rice paper
wrappers in most Asian groceries, particularly those that specialize in
Thai or Vietnamese ingredients. The wrappers are fragile and break or tear
easily, so have a few extra on hand when preparing this dish."
