Notes:

Now that the Australian summer is almost here, and the weather is glorious I have been living on Southeast Asian style salad rolls. They make a great party food - everyone can make their own.

Preparation:

Cut the veggies up into thin strips about 3 inches long. Microwave the asparagus for 3 minutes and chill. Soak 1 big handful of noodles in boiling water for 10 minutes.

Fill a big dish with warm water, dip the rice paper one sheet at a time in this water till it softens - 1-2 min.

Place the rice paper flat on a plate and add a bit of lettuce, a little bundle of noodles and whatever veggies you like. Don't fill it too full.

Fold the 'sides' of the rice paper in, then roll firmly to make a cigar shaped bundle. The rice daper will be very hard to work with if you soak it too long or let it dry out. Marinated LF tofu can also be included.

Serve with dipping sauces.

Sauce Preparation:

Stir together and enjoy. This is really good with cucumber!

Traditional Sauce Preparation:

Stir together and enjoy. This makes a nice salad dressing too.
