Ingredients

 200 g dry vermicelli rice noodles

 20 sheets rice paper (gluten-free)

 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

 2 carrots, grated

 2 cucumbers, halved, seeds removed, cut into 5cm strips

 2 cups shredded lettuce

 100 g bean sprouts

 1 bunch fresh mint leaves, washed

Dipping Sauce

 ½ cup Hoisin sauce

 3 tbsp sweet chilli sauce

 1 ½ tbsp sweet soy sauce

 3 tbsp fresh lime juice (or white vinegar)

 ½ tsp garlic, chopped

 2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves, chopped

Method

1

Prep all the fillings and have them ready for assembly.

2

Place vermicelli noodles in a large saucepan or heatproof bowl, cover them with boiling water and separate with a fork.

3

Sit for approximately 5 minutes or until noodles are soft, then drain.

4

Fill a large bowl with warm water. Dip one sheet of rice paper into the water for about 10 seconds or until it starts to soften, then transfer the sheet to a dinner plate or clean, lightly sprayed stainless steel benchtop.

5

Place a few strands of vermicelli and pieces of chicken, carrot, cucumber, lettuce, bean sprouts and mint leaves on one end of the rice paper.

6

Working from the filled end, fold the short lip of the rice paper over the ingredients, then top and tail the sides before rolling all the way to the end.

7

Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Tips

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded = approx. 400g.
  • Don’t leave your sheets of rice paper in the water for longer than 10 seconds, otherwise they become very tricky to handle.
  • Double or triple our Vietnamese chicken noodle salad recipe and use some of it as your rice paper roll filling.

Variations

  • Replace chicken with cooked strips of beef or firm tofu.
  • Use a few simple dollops of sweet chilli sauce instead of the dipping sauce recipe.
