Add commentIngredients
- 100g (3½ oz) Dried mung bean vermicelli (cellophane noodles)
- 1kg (2lb) Cooked large prawns
- 20-25 Rice paper wrappers, about 16cm (6½ inches) diameter
- 40 Fresh mint leaves
- 10 Garlic chives, halved
- Dipping sauce
- 2 TBSPS Satay sauce
- 3 TBSPS Hoisin sauce
- 1 Fresh red chilli, finely chopped
- 1 TBSP Chopped roasted unsalted peanuts
- 1 TBSP Lemon juice
Method
- 1) Soak the cellophane noodles for 5 minutes in a small bowl with enough hot water to cover. Drain well and use scissors to roughly chop the noodles into shorter lengths. Peel the prawns and gently pull out the dark vein from each back, starting at the head end.
- 2) Using a pastry brush, brush both sides of each rice paper wrapper with water. Leave for about 2 minutes, or until the wrappers become soft and pliable. Stack the wrappers on top of each other and sprinkle slightly with water to prevent them sticking together and drying out. Be careful as the wrapper can tear easily when softened (we've allowed a few extra just in case).
- 3) Place 1 softened wrapper on a work surface and spoon about 1 TBSP of the noodles along the bottom third of the wrapper, leaving enough space at the sides to fold the wrapper over. Top with two mint leaves and two prawn halves. Fold in the sides towards each other and firmly roll up the wrapper, adding a garlic chive and allowing it to point out on one end. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and ingredients and place the rolls, seam-side-down, on a serving plate. Cover with a damp tea towel to prevent them from drying out.
- 4) For the dipping sauce, mix the satay sauce, hoisin sauce, red chilli, peanuts and lemon juice in a small bowl. Serve with the spring rolls.
