Making rice paper rolls at home is easier than you might think! The key is having fresh ingredients and mastering the technique of working with rice paper wrappers.
Start by preparing your fillings: julienne vegetables like carrots, cucumber, and lettuce, fresh herbs like mint and cilantro, and your choice of protein. Soak the rice paper in warm water for just a few seconds until it becomes pliable.
Place your fillings in the center of the wrapper, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. The secret to perfect rolls is not over-soaking the wrapper and using fresh, crisp ingredients. Serve with a delicious dipping sauce made from hoisin, peanut butter, or traditional fish sauce.
