This is more of a list of ingredients that are lovely to use in Fresh Rolls. Make sure you use lots of vegetables and fresh herbs!
Ingredients:
- Dried rice stick noodles
- Rice paper skins (round)
- Bean sprouts (mung beans)
- Prawns, cooked and cut thin
- Bib lettuce
- Daikon radish, julienne
- Carrot, julienne
- Fresh cilantro leaves
- Fresh Thai basil leaves
- Fresh mint leaves
- Cucumber, julienne
- Summer squash, julienne
- Radish, thinly sliced
- White onion, thin sliced
- Chives or green onion, thin sliced
- Serrano chilies, sliced thin
Make it:
- Cook the rice sticks with the directions on the package. Rinse under cold water and put into a small bowl.
- Put all your cut ingredients into separate containers.
- Fill a shallow bowl or pan with hot tap water (wide enough for the rice papers to fit in easily)
- Put a clean damp cloth on your work space.
- Dip each rice paper for about 15 seconds and then place it on your damp cloth. Do this 1 at a time.
- Build your rolls by first adding shrimp (if you are using them), then rice noodle and then bean sprouts. From there you can add ingredients you like.
- Build this in the middle of the rice paper in a line with each end about 1 inch from the edge of the rice paper. Roll and then tuck in the ends before you do the last roll.
