Unbelievable pain to make so I don’t do it often, but these salad rolls were pretty great

    when we made salad burritos (wraps?) as a child we would dice all of the vegetables like it’s pico de gallo. maybe that’ll help the next time you make them?

      That’s a good idea, cuz doing it the long slices style with trying to lay out the rice noodles and keep the wrap from tangling all over the place was incredibly frustrating 😅😅😅 Your way sounds much better 🙏🙏

        it’s not my idea; i just copied and pasted it from generations of impoverished mexican-americans who couldn’t afford bread or beef for their families.

    I don’t find it too hard , what I do is to put the rice paper in big frying pan with warm water , just enough that is starts to soften . drape it onto a big plate so it will stick to the plate.

    Then place the filling in the middle and lift one corner from the plate and fold over. Repeat with the other corners , the rice paper will stick to itself to seal the thing.

    Bonus: briefly fry the whole thing on all sides
