Vietnamese crunch rolls

When I am craving something light but delicious for lunch my go to is these Vietnamese crunch rolls. Rice paper rolls filled with fresh, crunchy veg and served with the most delicious spicy sauce. There is nothing not to love in this recipe.

These rolls are so versatile and can be served as a light lunch or appetizers and can be made totally vegetarian or filled with either chicken or prawns for the non-veg option!

Let’s get cooking…

Prepare your vegetables by cutting them into very fine strips. Have all the ingredients for the rolls laid out because once you start you need to move quite quickly.

Once your assembly line is ready, start by soaking your first sheet of rice paper in cool water. This will soften very quickly, about 20-30 seconds. Remove and lay flat, put a little bit of all your veg and chicken into the centre, leaving enough space around the edges to easily fold the rice paper.

Then fold the bottom piece over the vegetables first, tuck in the side and continue to roll into a cigar.

Lay on your serving platter and repeat.

When you’re done rolling, mix together the ingredients for the sauce.

Begin dipping and enjoying!
