Let's get Cooking
Prepare vegetables, wash wombok cut into strips, wash slice cucumber into long thin strips, wash shoots, deseed and dice tomato, wash coriander, and slice onion finely set aside.
Place Vermicelli noodles in boiling water for 3 minutes, rinse & set aside
To save time you can buy buy ready cooked prawns; peeled and de-vein, slice down the middle, set aside. If not peel, de-vein and slice
Can buy a ready cooked chicken and rip into shreds, or cut chicken into strips, marinade with oyster sauce, soya sauce, garlic, honey, salt & pepper. Quickly fry for a few minutes and set aside. You can follow same method if prefer beef, fry with butter rather than oil
Boil full kettle of water, pour into large bowl, dip one rice paper into water so is wet all over and place rice paper flat onto a wet new chucks cloth or clean wet tea towel.
At one end put cucumber, wombok, tomato, shoots, coriander, noodles and meat of choice, roll over once, fold in ends and roll remaining till rice paper roll forms a cylinder shape.
There you have your first rice paper roll. mix it up with the veggies/salad add any other favourite veggies you may like, can add more than one meat as well. great for entrees and starters, even for lunch.
