Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls with prawns
Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls with Prawns – fresh, light, and full of flavor.
These vibrant rolls are packed with prawns (or tofu/chicken), crisp vegetables, herbs, and optional vermicelli noodles, all wrapped in delicate rice paper. Served chilled with a rich, creamy homemade satay sauce made from peanut butter, coconut milk, lime, and spices, they make a healthy, satisfying lunch or dinner. Perfect for warmer days, these rolls are refreshing, customizable, and ideal for dipping and sharing.
