Ingredients for 3 portions
100 g Dry rice paper sheets
90 g Rice vermicelli, dry
220 g Raw peeled prawns
100 g Lettuce
150 g Cucumber
100 g Carrot
15 g Fresh mint
15 g Fresh coriander
30 g Hoisin sauce
30 g Roasted peanuts
15 g Lime juice
50 g Water
Method
Cook rice noodles following the packet, rinse and drain. Poach prawns for 3–4 minutes until cooked, cool and halve lengthways.
Slice cucumber and carrot into fine strips. Prepare lettuce and herbs. Crush peanuts and mix with hoisin, lime and measured water for dipping.
Dip one rice-paper sheet briefly in lukewarm water and lay on a damp board. Add a little lettuce, noodles, vegetables, herbs and prawns.
Fold sides inward and roll snugly. Repeat to make around nine rolls and serve promptly with dipping sauce.
Three rolls per portion. Keep rolls covered with a slightly damp cloth while assembling; rice paper softens after dipping.
