Preparing the Wrappers
Softening the Wrappers: Submerge each rice paper wrapper in warm water for 10-15 seconds until they become pliable, then place them on a clean, damp towel.
Assembling the Dumplings
Adding the Filling: Spoon a generous tablespoon of the flavorful filling onto the bottom of each wrapper, ensuring to leave some space at the edges.
Rolling Technique: Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll tightly, resembling the technique used for a burrito, and position seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Baking the Delights
Enhancing Crispness: Brush the dumplings with olive oil or apply a light coating of cooking spray. Bake for 20-25 minutes until they achieve a delightful crispness and golden hue. Keep a close eye on them to prevent over-baking.
Serving Suggestions
Perfect Pairings: Allow the dumplings to cool slightly before presenting them with your preferred dipping sauce.
