2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup fresh mint, optional

Instructions
Prepare the Beef: In a bowl, mix thinly sliced beef with soy sauce, minced garlic, and red chili flakes. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Cook the Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a touch of oil, then cook the marinated beef until browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Prepare the Vegetables: While the beef cools, julienne cucumbers, carrots, and any optional ingredients you desire, like bell peppers and avocado.
Soak the Rice Paper: Fill a large bowl with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until soft. Lay it flat on a clean surface.
Assemble the Rolls: On the lower third of the rice paper, layer a few basil leaves, a portion of cooked beef, and a handful of julienned vegetables. Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll it tightly from the bottom up.
Repeat: Continue this process until all ingredients are used up.
Serve: Arrange the rolls on a serving platter. Add garnishes, such as chopped peanuts and lime wedges, and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce.
