As part of our ongoing commitment to the new Nutrition Masterclasses in The Studio HQ Online, we have enlisted the help of the incredibly talented local foodie, Ali Hargreaves.
Ali is a Hobart native and long time friend of The Studio HQ team, who has written a cookbook of her own – Foraging Throughout Tasmania. Now, she has unlocked some powerful recipes that complement each stage of our nutrition journey, accessible exclusively to Online Members.
Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls
Serves 4
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- 16 rice paper sheets
- 2 red capsicums, thinly sliced
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 avocados, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch coriander leaves, chopped
- 1 cup bean shoots
- 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, to serve
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan-forced)
- Wrap each chicken breast in foil and bake for 30 minutes until cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, and once it has cooled down a bit, shred it into thin pieces.
- Submerge one rice paper sheet in lukewarm water until soft then remove and shake off any excess water.
- Place a couple of slices each of capsicum, carrot, avocado and chicken on top of the rice paper sheet, topped with a sprinkling of coriander and a few been shoots.
- Wrap the top and bottom of the rice paper sheet inwards, followed by the sides to form an enclosed rice paper roll. You may need to rub a bit of extra water on the closed roll to lock everything in.
- Repeat with the remaining rice paper sheets and ingredients.
- Serve the rolls with hoisin sauce.
