INGREDIENTS

16 oz. fresh cremini mushrooms, sliced

3 tablespoons brown rice vinegar

2 cups cooked brown rice

⅓ cup sliced scallions

2 tablespoons shredded fresh basil

1 tablespoon tamari or reduced-sodium soy sauce

½ teaspoon finely chopped fresh red Thai chile

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup chopped fresh pineapple

1 cup fresh snow pea pods, cut into bite-size strips

4 8-inch round brown rice papers

8 leaves butterhead lettuce

2 tablespoons unsalted peanut butter

1 tablespoon lime juice

2 to 3 teaspoons pure maple syrup

INSTRUCTIONS

In an extra-large skillet cook mushrooms in 2 tablespoons of the vinegar over medium-high 12 minutes or until tender and lightly browned, stirring frequently and adding water, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, as needed to prevent sticking. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and the next six ingredients (through garlic); remove from heat. Stir in pineapple and snow peas. Cool to room temperature or cover and chill.

To assemble cones:

Fill a large shallow dish with warm water. Slide one rice paper into the water for a few seconds or until it is moistened and just pliable.

Carefully transfer the rice paper to a 9-inch square of parchment paper. Rotate parchment paper so it looks like a diamond. Place two lettuce leaves along the top edge of the rice paper.

Top with 1¼ cups of the filling. Arrange filling in an upside-down triangle shape so that there is more toward the top of the lettuce. Fold one side of the rice paper up and over the filling at an angle. Repeat with other side to create a cone-shape wrap. Fold the excess parchment paper up and over the wrap in a cone shape.

Repeat with remaining rice paper, lettuce, and filling.

In a small bowl stir together peanut butter, lime juice, maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons water. Serve with cones.
