Rice paper wraps
These rice paper wraps are really tasty and filling, yet they don’t make you feel as bloaty as a sandwich sometimes does.
You can dip them in sweet chilli or soy sauce and they enclose some lovely fresh veg.
Feel free to change the fillings as you like. It could be chicken and julienned veggies, or bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, carrot, pepper and hummus.

Instructions
Soak the rice pancakes according to packet instructions in a shallow bowl of hot water and then lay each one on a clean tea towel and pat dry.
Add a narrowish strip of the veg and prawn mix down the middle of the pancake and add seasoning, fold over one half and then each end and carefully roll it up as tightly as you can.
Slice each roll into two and serve with the dipping sauce.
