Ingredients
- 200 g ground chicken breast
- 3 rice paper sheets
- ½ tsp sesame oil
- ¼ tsp MSG
- ½ tsp Chinese five-spice powder
- ¼ tsp ginger powder
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 to 2 tbsp green onion, finely chopped
- Soy sauce, to taste
- 1 tbsp chilli oil, for topping
Method
- In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with sesame oil, MSG, Chinese five-spice powder, ginger powder, crushed garlic and chopped green onion. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Dip each rice paper sheet briefly in warm water, just until it softens. Avoid soaking it for too long, as the sheets will continue to soften while you work with them.
- Place a portion of the chicken mixture in the centre of each softened rice paper sheet. Fold in the sides and roll tightly to form neat rolls, ensuring the filling is securely enclosed.
- Arrange the rolls in a steamer, leaving a little space between them to prevent sticking. Cover and steam for about 12 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Carefully remove the rolls from the steamer and transfer them to a serving plate. Drizzle with soy sauce and top with chilli oil.
- Serve hot and enjoy immediately.
