Preparation

In a small saucepan, add oil, sliced garlic chives and bring to the simmer. Stir then take off heat and transfer garlic chive oil to a bowl.

Thread each prawn onto the skewer and char grill on medium heat for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked.

Whilst the prawns are grilling, place the thin thread vermicelli noodle on a plate and reheat it in the microwave for 1 minute on high. Now coat the noodles with garlic chive oil and sprinkle with crushed peanuts.

Rehydrate your rice paper in warm water then add noodles, an unpeeled prawn, green mango, green banana, cucumber and lettuce. Roll from the bottom up, folding the sides in to form a tight roll.

Repeat this process and dip into nuoc mam cham dipping fish sauce.

Sticking to the steamer

To avoid food sticking to the bamboo steamer either place a cabbage leaf (or similar) in the bamboo steamer (placing the dumplings on top). Alternatively cut a round of baking paper and cut holes into it (as you would make a paper snowflake).
