Rice Wrapper Vegetable Rolls with Sweet Sauce
A dish that traces its roots back to Vietnamese cuisine, the Rice Wrapper Rolls with Sweet Sauce features a rich stuffing of shredded vegetables, noodles and sprouts, flavoured aptly with soy sauce. If you wish, you can mix in some chopped mushroom too. These scrumptious rolls are further enhanced by arranging them on a sizzler plate, and topping them with tongue-tickling sweet sauce made of Schezuan sauce and other ingredients. Since we have made this recipe with readymade rice wrappers, it is quite convenient to prepare, but offers a much more exotic alternative to spring rolls! This starter can be followed by a main course of Hot and Sour Soup ( Easy Chinese Recipe ) and Triple Schezuan Rice and end your meal with Honey Noodles with Vanilla Ice Cream .
