Dipping sauce:
juice of 1 lemon 1 clove garlic, finely chopped 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped 1 tablespoon fish sauce 1 cm piece fresh ginger, sliced
Method:
1. Grate carrot. Finely slice snow peas, spring onions and capsicum, lengthwise, about 8 cm long. Finely shred cabbage and place in bowl with lemon juice and fish sauce to marinate.
2. Soak rice paper sheets, 2 to 3 at a time, in cold water for approximately 2 minutes. Lift out carefully and place on a wet tea towel to continue softening. When they are fully soft and pliable they are ready to use.
3. Place a softened rice paper sheet on a board. Place a small amount of each vegetable and 1 piece of herb on the edge of the paper. (Suggested amounts are 1 to 2 slices of each vegetable and about 1 teaspoon of carrot and cabbage.) Under rather than over fill the rolls.
4. Roll up the rice paper, tucking in the edges. Place on a platter or tray. Continue with the other sheets of rice paper until all the filling is used.
5. Serve rice paper rolls cold or at room temperature, and use sauce to dip rolls into.
Dipping sauce:
Mix all ingredients together.
Notes: Makes 30 rice paper rolls. Vegetable mix, spices and flavourings can be varied according to taste. For variety, use minced chicken or pork, cooked in Asian spices in the filling. If you are preparing food for people on a gluten-free diet, always check the ingredients on all food labels, especially any prepared items like sauces.
