Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F).
Season the salmon fillet with salt and black pepper, then drizzle with olive oil.
Place the salmon on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Let it cool slightly, then flake into bite-sized pieces.
Cook the rice vermicelli noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Prepare all the vegetables (julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper) and set them aside in separate piles.
Fill a shallow dish or pie plate with warm water. Working one at a time, dip a rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10β15 seconds until it softens slightly, then lay it flat on a clean, damp kitchen towel or a cutting board.
Near the bottom third of the rice paper, place a small amount of vermicelli noodles, a few pieces of each vegetable, a few flaked salmon pieces, and a mix of mint, cilantro, and basil leaves.
Fold the bottom edge of the rice paper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll it up tightly like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and ingredients.
To prepare the dipping sauce, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, and chili flakes (if using) in a small bowl until well combined.
Serve the summer rolls immediately with the dipping sauce on the side.
