Tips

Method

Step 1
Fill a large bowl with warm water.

Step 2
Quickly dip a rice paper round into the water until it is soft. Spread flat on a work surface.

Step 3
On the bottom third of the rice paper, layer the vegetables, starting with the spinach, then top with the capsicum, zucchini, carrot and wombok and finally the tofu.

Step 4
Fold in both sides of the rice paper, then lift the bottom edge over the vegetables. Tightly tuck and roll the rice paper away from you. Set aside seam side down. Repeat with the remaining rolls.

Step 5
To make the sauce, mix all the ingredients together ensuring the sugar is dissolved.


Serving suggestion: Cover with damp paper towel, then wrap well in plastic wrap and refrigerate to avoid drying out. 

Food safety tip: If you are packing for lunch, rice paper rolls need to be kept cold so pack an ice brick.
