Asian Feast – Baked Spring Rolls and Chicken Vermicelli Noodles

By | | , , , , , , ,

I’ve never tried spring rolls with Oscar because, until recently, it’s been painful to get him to eat anything with vegetables in it.  This made the fresh Vietnamese style ones out, and I’m not a big fan of deep frying, so I haven’t made the cooked ones either.   With the vegetable situation improving I decided try some cooked ones, but baked, not fried.  I couldn’t find any preservative-free spring roll pastry, so I used rice paper, which didn’t seem to make any difference.  We had them with Chicken Vermicelli Noodles, which I modified from a recipe on Rasamalaysia.  Oscar loved it all, especially mixed with his No-Tomato Sauce.
