• Lay the softened rice paper flat on a clean surface or a damp towel.
• Place a small handful of lettuce, followed by the cucumber, carrot, bell pepper, and avocado in the centre of the rice paper.
• Carefully fold the sides of the rice paper inwards, then roll it tightly from the bottom up, making sure the filling stays secure.
• Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Serve with a peanut dipping sauce or tamari for added flavour.
