langostino fresh rolls w/ peanut scallion sauce



i just want to start off by saying that i can take no credit whatsoever for the beautiful presentation of these rolls.  it was my man who done such a fine job of rolling them up...he's pretty much a pro at it.  therefore, i take no credit for the beautiful presentation of these rolls.

so him and i started off making this appetizer for family who was expected to be arriving shortly.  i cut up all the ingredients and made the sauce, and he pan-seared the langostino tails, assembled the rolls and made the magic happen.

recipe: serves 4-5 as an appetizer

fresh roll ingredients
spring roll paper, moistened for rolling
langostino tails (from tj's), thawed and pan-seared w/ seasonings and fresh lemon juice
shelled edamame (from tj's)
english cucumber, julienned
carrots, julienned
avocado
microgreens
fresh cilantro
fresh mint
s & p

peanut scallion sauce ingredients
soy sauce
natural chunky peanut butter
fish sauce
red pepper flakes
fresh scallions
fresh lemon juice
fresh ginger
fresh garlic
roasted sesame seeds

prep all fresh roll ingredients and begin assembling in whatever order you prefer.  and now for the sauce...an easy way to use that left-over peanut butter in the bottom of the jar is to add the remaining ingredients, shake it all up, and viola'
~dip, dunk, digest~
