Stuffing rice-paper sheets with fresh vegies and protein is an inexpensive, gluten-free alternative to a sandwich.

Ingredients

1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup cabbage, finely shredded
1/3 cup mint, chopped
1 medium carrot, grated
1 bird's-eye chilli, seeded and finely chopped
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/3 cup peanuts, chopped
2 tsp fish sauce
1 tbs sesame oil
6 large rice-paper sheets
6 large king prawns, shelled

Method

1. Combine sprouts, cabbage, mint, carrot, chilli, shallots and peanuts in a large bowl.
2. Stir through fish sauce and sesame oil.
3. Pour some hot water into a large bowl and dip a rice-paper sheet into the water to soften.
4. Stretch rice paper across a flat surface and spoon cabbage mixture across the bottom third of the sheet, leaving enough space on the ends to tuck the rice paper in around the filling.
5. Place 1 prawn on top of mixture, then roll paper, tucking in the sides.
Repeat to make 6 rolls and serve.
