Vietnamese Ricepaper Rolls

Ricepaper Rolls Recipe

Vietnamese ricepaper rolls are one of my favourite dishes. Feel free to add any combination of vegetables you like as well as your choice of protein. I’ve used my Ginger Garlic Chicken (see recipe) as the protein source in these rolls, but you could use tofu or cut up omelette.

Makes: 12 rolls
