Servings: 4

Ingredients

Rice flour
1 cup
Tapioca starch
1/4 cup
Water
1 1/4 cups
Oil
2 tablespoons (plus extra for greasing)
Soy sauce
2 tablespoons (for serving)
Sesame seeds
1 tablespoon (to sprinkle on top)
Green onions
2, finely chopped (for garnish)
Fillings (optional)
as desired (e.g., cooked shrimp, char siu, or vegetables)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine rice flour, tapioca starch, and water. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Grease a flat, rectangular dish (approximately 8x10 inches) with oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Pour a thin layer of the batter (about 1/4 inch thick) into the greased dish, spreading it evenly.
  4. Prepare a steamer and bring water to a boil. Place the dish in the steamer and cover. Steam on high heat for about 5 minutes, or until the batter is set and slightly translucent.
  5. Remove the dish from the steamer and let it cool for a minute. If desired, add any fillings of your choice before rolling.
  6. Carefully roll up the steamed rice noodle sheet from one end to the other, forming a log shape.
  7. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the dish as needed for each batch.
  8. Slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces and arrange them on a serving plate.
  9. Drizzle with soy sauce, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
