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).

Steps:
- Firstly, mix the rice vinegar, water, caster sugar, salt and garlic in a large bowl and leave to sit.
- Soak the rice vermicelli in boiling water for about 10 minutes, until it is no longer hard (but not soggy!).
- Add the noodles, cabbage, carrot, coriander and spring onions to the dressing and mix well.
- Now set up your production line- get a flat bowl and fill it with hot water. Take a rice paper sheet and soak it in the water until it's soft- about 15 seconds.
- remove it from the water and place on a clean tea towel. Spoon some of the mixture onto the rice paper.
- Fold in the bottom first, then the sides, and roll to form a cigar shape.
- Continue the same with the rest of the rolls.
- These can be prepared well in advance and stored in the fridge under a wet tea towel- see the recipe description above for serving suggestions.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Brush a large baking pan with 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil and set aside.

Steps:
- Soak the noodles in boiling water from the kettle, following pack instructions. Drain and rinse under cold running water to cool, then toss in a little sesame oil to stop them sticking together.
- Next, make the dipping sauce by mixing all the ingredients together. Set aside.
- Fill a wide, shallow dish a few centimetres deep with warm water. Working with one rice paper wrap at a time, soak it for a few seconds until it's flexible, then lay it on a chopping board. Scatter some of the herbs down the centre, then top with a couple of prawns or a little bit of chicken, then some veg pieces and mango, and a small bundle of noodles. Try to keep the fillings in the centre, and don't overfill. Tuck the ends of the wrap over the ingredients to slightly enclose them, then roll up from the sides, keeping everything as tight as you can. Put the finished rolls on a plate covered with a damp sheet of kitchen paper until you're finished assembling all the rolls. Will keep in the fridge for up to 24 hrs. Serve with the sesame dipping sauce.
