Rice Paper Prawn Rolls
I'm sure we have all had those hunger pangs during mid-day or tea-time. What we choose to eat at those times are important, choosing empty calories like aerated drinks, coffee, cakes, etc do no good. Always try reaching out for healthier options like seasonal fruits, dried nuts/fruits, overnight oats, veggie wraps, the options are endless! My all-time favourite evening snack are rice paper rolls, easy to make, super filling and can be made for dinner as well. Let's get started.
All you need is,
- 100g prawns (deveined and deshelled)
- 4 rice paper sheets (I use a Vietnamese brand)
- 1 avocado (sliced)
- 1 tomato (Sliced)
- 1 carrot (Juliene/sliced)
- Few leaves of Romaine Lettuce (Feel free to use any vegetables you have in your fridge)
- 1 tsp oil (I used coconut)
In a pan, add oil and fry the prawns for 3-4 minutes on each side. You know it's done when the prawns change colour and form a C shape. It's time to assemble! Wet the rice paper roll in a bowl of water, place it on an even surface. On the lower end of the paper add the tomato, carrot and lettuce slices, just a few to prevent the roll from opening. Make a fold upwards, on the top part add the prawns, then layer the avocado slices on the prawns.
