Rice Paper (fresh) Rolls

I talk to Tim about how to make Vietnamese Rice Paper (fresh) Rolls.  These rolls are becoming very popular because they’re delicious and healthy and really easy to make.

The ingredients you’ll need are, see the video below to get an idea of what they look like:
– vermicelli noodles
– rice paper
– cooked prawns
– boiled pork belly
– bean sprouts
– one bunch of Vietnamese basil, chopped
– one bunch of coriander – use leaves only, chopped
– one bunch of garlic chives (optional)
– lettuce leaves, chopped

Preparation: see video from chow.com to see how it’s done
– boil vermicelli until white and soft, drain and let cool
– boil pork and sliced thinly
– de-vein and boil prawns and cut in half
– soften rice paper with warm water and place ingredients in centre and fold as per video, a couple of slices of pork and one prawn (halved) in each roll, vermicelli and add remaining ingredients to taste

If you were motivated to make these rolls, why not send me pics of your creation and let me know how it went!
