Rice Paper Rolls

Serves:

Ingredients

Gluten-free, egg-free, nut-free, lactose-free

• 10 sheets rice paper (gluten-free)
• 1 cup (about 200g) cooked chicken, shredded
• 1 carrot, peeled and grated
• 1 cucumber, halved, seeds removed, cut into 5cm strips 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, chopped
• ½ cup Hoisin sauce

Method

Fill a large bowl with warm water.

Dip a sheet of rice paper into the water for about 10 seconds, just until it starts to soften (if you leave it in too long it becomes very tricky to handle), then transfer the sheet to a dinner plate.

Place a few pieces of chicken, carrot, cucumber, lettuce and herbs in a pile on one end of the rice paper.

Fold the top of the rice paper over the ingredients, then fold in each side and roll up. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Serve on a large plate with Hoisin dipping sauce.
Serving Suggestions

Note

• A great kid-friendly recipe, if you have small non-knife-wielding kids, prepare all the ingredients for them and let them roll up, roll up!
• We two adults managed to polish off all 10 between us, so maybe double the recipe if you have a hungry horde to feed.
• You could bulk these up with some thin rice noodles (stick) and vary the filling with prawns, cooked beef or bean sprouts.
• Hoisin sauce is quite a strong flavour, substitute with a bought Rice Paper roll dipping sauce or sweet chilli sauce if you prefer.
