Ingredients
- 12 pieces Fresh popiah wrappers
- 6 sheets Dried seaweed sheets
- 2 large Carrot
- 1 large Cucumber
- 1 medium Jicama
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 medium Shallots
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Chili sauce
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the vegetables. Peel and shred the carrots, cucumber, and jicama into thin julienne strips and set aside.
Step 2
Finely chop the garlic and shallots.
Step 3
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots, sauté until they turn golden and become aromatic.
Step 4
Add the jicama to the skillet and stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until it starts to soften. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, then remove from heat.
Step 5
On a clean work surface, lay out a popiah wrapper. Place a dried seaweed sheet on the wrapper.
Step 6
Arrange a small handful of shredded carrots, cucumber, and the sautéed jicama mixture onto the seaweed, adding a squeeze of lime juice for a zesty touch.
Step 7
Roll the wrapper tightly by folding the sides inward and rolling from bottom to top to enclose the filling.
Step 8
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 9
Once all popiah rolls are assembled, slice each roll diagonally into two or three pieces for serving.
Step 10
Serve with chili sauce for dipping or drizzling over the rolls.
