Method

  1. Soak noodles in boiling water for 3 minutes, drain and rinse cold.
  2. Dip a wrapper in warm water for a few seconds and lay flat on a damp board.
  3. Layer herbs first (they show through the wrapper), then noodles, vegetables and mango.
  4. Fold in the sides and roll tightly. Repeat, and serve with the dipping sauce.

Nutritional notes

A great way to eat a large volume of raw vegetables and herbs. Add prawns or tofu for a more filling, higher-protein lunch.
