Main Ingredients

  • 8-10 sheets Rice Paper Wrappers The star of our show!
  • 200 g Noodles of Choice Glass or rice noodles; cook as per package instructions.
  • 1 cup Vegetables Julienned veggies like bell peppers, carrots, or any colorful options.
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Herbs Chopped basil, cilantro, or mint for a fresh flavor kick.
  • 1 cup Protein Option Cooked and shredded tofu, shrimp, or chicken.
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce For an umami flavor.
  • to taste Peanut Sauce Optional for dipping.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by prepping your noodles and veggies. Cook the noodles as per the package instructions (usually just a few minutes), rinse them under cold water, and toss them with the soy sauce.
  • Fill a large bowl with warm water. One by one, immerse each rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10 seconds until it’s pliable.

Assembly

  • Lay the softened wrapper on a clean surface. In the lower third of the wrapper, place a small amount of noodles, a sprinkle of veggies, herbs, and protein.
  • Fold in the sides and then roll it tightly from the bottom up.

Cooking

  • Arrange the rolls in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Spray them lightly with oil and set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy.

Serving

  • Serve your crunchy rolls warm alongside your favorite dip, like peanut sauce.

Notes

Don’t sweat it if you tear a rice paper while rolling, use it in a salad or crisp it up in the air fryer. Feel free to mix and match fillings based on leftovers or preference.
