RICE PAPER WRAPS WITH VEGETABLES
Steps:
- In a large bowl filled with warm water, soak 1 rice paper wrapper for about 20 seconds or until soft. Lay wrapper out on a tea towel to absorb excess water. Transfer wrapper to a flat surface. About 1/3 from the bottom of the wrapper, create a 3-inch long row by placing some cilantro leaves followed by some red pepper, yellow pepper, snow peas, mushrooms, bean sprouts, buckwheat noodles and a little ginger. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the top 1/3 of the rice wrapper with black sesame seeds. Carefully fold the bottom of the rice paper wrapper over the vegetables. Turn in the sides and continue rolling up from the bottom.
- To serve, slice the roll in half on a bias. Serve with Orange-Chili Dipping Sauce.
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the sesame oil and rice wine vinegar. Toss the cooked buckwheat noodles in the sesame mixture. Set aside.
- Whisk together all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Allow the sauce to stand for 30 minutes so that the flavors can infuse. Serve at room temperature.
CRUNCHY VEGGIE RICE PAPER WRAPS
I just threw this together for an appetizer and they turned out as very tasty wraps - lots of crunch and peppy with the sweet chili sauce . It can be vegetarian by leaving out the crab or shrimp- still tasty. These may also be served as a side dish or as a course with an Oriental meal. I usually make the filling early in the day and roll the wraps within an hour or two before serving keep cool if you do these ahead.

VEGETABLE RICE PAPER ROLLS
These rolls are very delicious, easy to make and low fat. Fab as a starter, and people are always very impressed. They can be served cold, but I prefer to perpare them in advance, leave them in the fridge covered with a wet tea towel and then steam them for two minutes just before serving. I like to serve them with a sweet chili sauce and vietnamese coleslaw (I shall post this recipe also).

Tips:
- Prep the Rice Paper: Before you begin assembling the wraps, soak the rice paper sheets in warm water for about 10-15 seconds, until they become pliable and soft. This will make them easier to work with and prevent them from cracking.
- Use Fresh Vegetables: The freshness of the vegetables greatly impacts the taste and texture of the wraps. Choose crisp, colorful, and flavorful veggies for the best results.
- Variety is Key: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of vegetables, herbs, and sauces to create a variety of wraps. The possibilities are endless!
- Don't Overfill the Wraps: When assembling the wraps, be mindful not to overfill them. Too much filling can make them difficult to roll and may cause them to break.
- Sauce it Up: Sauces are a great way to add flavor and moisture to the wraps. Experiment with different types of sauces, such as peanut sauce, hoisin sauce, or a simple vinaigrette, to complement the vegetables.
Conclusion:
