Vegetarian Vietnamese Rice Rolls Serves 8
Ingredients 500g Dry Short Egg Noodles (or Noodle-Pastas, broken into shorter strands) 24 Sheets of Vietnamese Rice Paper (16cm diameter) Seasoning: 1/2 cup Spring Onions, Chopped 1/3 cup Fish Sauce 3 Thai Chilli Peppers, Cut
Method 1. Boil a pot of water 2. Cook the noodles in the water* * If serving within the same day, cook the noodles until it is almost al dente. If serving the next day, cook it so it is only half-cooked. It will absorb the fish sauce mixture as it sits.
3. While the noodles are cooking, prepare the Seasoning 4. Drain the noodles from the water and run it under cold water for a while 5. Toss the noodles with the Seasoning in a bowl. Let sit for a while. 6. Soak the rice paper in water until it is malleable but not fragile 7. Take the rice paper out and portion a rounded dessertspoon-ful of seasoned noodles unto the middle. 8. Wrap the rice paper the way one would wrap a spring roll. Leave it to air for a while to tighten itself around the goodies in the roll. 9. Keep it in covered in refridgerator until ready to serve.
Eat solo or with a peanut dipping sauce**. **The peanut dipping sauce recipe can be found at <blackcealt.blogspot.com> - in the post dated 14th January 2007
Tip: Ingredients are readily and economically available at Chinatown.
