Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls
With Summer approaching and the weather warming up these tasty little rolls are ideal for a picnic or snack. I also wanted to make a dish that my new sister in law could make for my brother. She always looks at the recipes but can't make them because they are either meat, or very indulgent! My brother is the healthy one in the family, so I wanted to make my “raw” dish, a recipe which would be suitable for him.
Ingredients:
1 medium carrot cut into matchsticks
50 gm bean sprouts
50 gm snow pea sprouts
½ cup loosely packed fresh coriander leaves
1 cos lettuce, leaves separated
½ T/s finely grated fresh ginger
100gm tofu, cut into 6 slices
6 x 21 cm rice paper rounds
Dipping sauce
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon grated palm sugar
1 fresh small red thai chilli, chopped finely
Method:
Combine all the dipping sauce ingredients in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
Prepare vegetables and tofu as shown in picture below. Trim lettuce so that it is smaller than the rice paper rolls.
Dip one rice paper round into a bowl of warm water until soft, place it on a damp clean cloth.
Top the rice paper with one lettuce leaf, add a slice of tofu and then the remaining salad items.
Roll the ingredients tightly in the lettuce and then enclose in the rice paper roll.
Serve with dipping sauce.

Have Your Say
Love the retro posters, wish I could come!
The cheeses were amazing! I just bought more at Pansabella yesterday, I could go another day without having more :)
Jac, I decided to let everyone enjoy their day without the photographic evidence. Although I do have a couple of very amusing images!
Sounds like a great evening and I love the look of that goats cheese.
Jules, we need a photo of the sexy girls that were wine tasting.........
LOL!! Winston, lets just say I certainly did my bit for charity over the weekend ;)
On a serious note though, the wines on display were top class, I am sure you would be equally as impressed as I was with the selection.
Sounds like you had a fantastic time Julie! Combining charity and wine is a great idea! :D
Ohhh coool you attended a charity by the Rotary Club! My mum has been active with them for over 30 years so I fully support anything that they do. And c'mon, drinking for charity? It doesn't get any better than that, really! Haha! Anyway, I really enjoy reading about your wine tastings on your blog there's quite a few that stood out to me and I'll try and look out for them next time. Hopefully they'll have em at Dan Murphy's, fingers crossed! =)
What a great event. I love it when people are generous with the drinks. I haven't heard of that sparkling wine before but I'll look out for it xx
I wish I had you for my mum when I was 5!
That cake would have been the talk of the town for the rest of the year - fantastic job.
Thank you so much, it is going to be a wonderful surprise for my Mum, I wish everyone a great day with your own special people, those who helped you become who you are today.
Mum definitely deserves the hamper, because she is an amazing woman that has brought up 3 kids through tough times. She is the best mum a son could ask for.
She's had it tough, working hard
deserving much more than just a card
So let's raise a glass and toast her true
The best person in the world - Mum, that's you!
