Ingredients
- 8 sheets of Rice paper (round shape)
- 100g Glass noodles
- 1 cup Red cabbage (shredded)
- 1 Carrot (julienne)
- 1 Cucumber (julienne)
- 1 Lime
- 1 Avocado (sliced)

- 1 handful of Mint leaves
- 1 handful of Coriander leaves
- 1 cup of BE peanut sauce for dipping
Cooking Steps
Preparation :
1. Cut all your fresh veggies into slices or julienne and squeeze the lime n top of the avocado to avoid oxydation.
2. Boil the glass noodles for 2-3 min or until soft. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop it from cooking. Set aside
3. Fill a shallow pan or plate with room temperature water. Make sure your prepared fillings are within reach.
4. Place one rice paper in the water and let it rest for about 20 seconds. Carefully lay it flat on a clean towel.
5. Leaving about 2 cm of open rice paper around the edges, cover the lower third of the paper with a few leaves of mint or basil, followed by a small handful of rice noodles, some cabbage, and a few strips of carrot, cucumber and avocado. Sprinkle generously coriander.
6. Fold the lower edge up over the fillings, rolling upward just until the filling is compactly enclosed. Fold over the short sides and roll it up. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
7. Serve with BE peanut sauce as dipping (or sweet chili, or seafood)
