Vietnamese Cold Roll
Vietnamese rolls were something that was introduced to us by our dear friends Ji and May. We did a patio party once at their place when they made it for us and we loved the concept of getting involved, make our own rolls, add our own ingredients and eat. The beauty of this dish is that you don’t follow any rules, you can add any fresh produce that you get in the market or grow in your kitchen gardens. This one is more about having fun with friends while eating together, it is also very easy and needs less prep so you may want to do it when you invite your friends without much efforts. This has become my wife’s specialty and she makes these sometimes during summer days when we have friends at home.
Along with the fresh look and beautiful looks, it tastes brilliant too. You can use whatever sauces you like but I love the Peanut sauce that my wife makes for this , which compliments the condiments with some sweet and tangy flavors. You can also add some sea food/meat and make it your own. I am writing a vegetarian recipe here.
Do check the video too for the materials we used for the noodles and the rice roll.
