Instructions
Prepare the vegetables by julienning the carrot, cucumber, and bell pepper, shredding the purple cabbage, slicing the avocado, and chopping the fresh herbs (cilantro and mint). Set aside.
To make the chimichurri sauce, combine olive oil, parsley, garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth but still slightly textured. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
Fill a large bowl or shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper at a time into the water for about 10-15 seconds, or until pliable, then transfer it onto a clean kitchen towel or work surface.
Place a small handful of julienned vegetables, shredded cabbage, sliced avocado, and a pinch of fresh cilantro and mint onto the bottom third of the wrapper, leaving space at the edges to fold.
Fold the bottom edge of the rice paper wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Once all spring rolls are assembled, arrange them on a serving platter. Serve immediately with the prepared chimichurri sauce for dipping.
