Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls


This is a rough guide on how to make these rolls. Substitute with your own changes and additions. The important thing is how you treat the rice paper. This will determine what your rolls will be like . Remember they must be rolled on the day you use them. A fridge overnight will not work. If you need to refrigerate for a couple of hours cover them with a damp tea towel and put in the fridge. These are vegetarian, but they can be made with prawns, pork or duck. This recipe will make about 30 rolls.
