Enjoy silky, soft, and flavorful homemade Rice Noodle Rolls, a classic Asian street food dish featuring thin rice noodle sheets wrapped around savory fillings, steamed to perfection, and drizzled with a light soy-based sauce. This easy recipe uses simple ingredients and straightforward steps to create an elegant and comforting treat you can customize to your taste.

Ingredients

Scale

Noodle Batter

  • 100g rice flour
  • 30g tapioca starch
  • 250ml water

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Fillings (optional)

  • Cooked shrimp, mushrooms, scallions, or savory pork (quantity as desired)

Others

  • Cooking oil (for oiling steaming surface)
  • Garnishes: sliced scallions, toasted sesame seeds, chili oil or hoisin sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: Combine rice flour, tapioca starch, and water in a bowl until smooth with no lumps. The batter should be thin, similar to heavy cream, to create silky noodle sheets.
  2. Set Up Your Steaming Station: Use a flat, heatproof tray or shallow pan that fits inside your steamer or wok. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking. Bring the steamer water to a rolling boil for even cooking.
  3. Pour and Steam the Noodle Sheet: Pour a thin layer of batter onto the tray, just enough to cover the surface evenly. Place the tray inside the steamer and steam for about 2 minutes, until the noodle sheet becomes translucent and slightly firm.
  4. Add Fillings and Roll: Carefully slide the cooked noodle sheet onto a clean surface. Place your chosen filling along one edge, then gently roll it up like a delicate crepe. Repeat with remaining batter and fillings.
  5. Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan, mix soy sauce, water, sugar, and sesame oil. Warm gently until the sugar dissolves and ingredients are combined. Drizzle the sauce over the finished Rice Noodle Rolls just before serving.

Notes

  • Oil the steaming surface well to prevent sticking and tearing.
  • The batter consistency should be thin but not watery to maintain delicate sheets.
  • Work quickly to roll each noodle sheet soon after steaming to avoid tearing as it cools.
  • Cook fillings ahead and let cool slightly for best texture inside the rolls.
  • Serve Rice Noodle Rolls fresh and warm for optimal silkiness and flavor.
