Crispy Baked Rice Paper Rolls
These crispy oven‑baked rice paper rolls are a flavour‑packed, healthy option that’s perfect as a starter, side dish, or gluten‑free alternative to classic spring rolls. Loaded with fresh vegetables and baked until beautifully crunchy, they’re a lighter, wholesome twist on a favourite.
Our homemade Chilli, Mango & Lime Dressing adds instant sweet‑spicy tang and lifts every bite — a dipping sauce so good it’s become a firm favourite in the Mellow Yellow Kitchen. Together, they make an easy, vibrant dish ideal for entertaining or weeknight dinners.
Method
-
1
Preheat your oven to 210°C fan.
-
2
Finely slice the courgette, carrot, pepper and spring onions. Separate them evenly in ten individual portions and keep them aside.
-
3
In a bowl with lukewarm water, dip the rice paper sheet for a few seconds on both sides until it becomes slightly soft. Do not over soak otherwise it will become too sticky and difficult to handle.
-
4
Add one portion (sliced courgette, carrot, pepper, spring onion) to the bottom-end of the rice paper sheet. Start folding it by rolling the sheet away from you. Bring the left and right sides in before the final fold.

5
Place all 10 rice paper rolls on a lined baking tray and brush each one with Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil on all sides.
-
6
Sprinkle the rice paper rolls with sesame seeds and bake at 210°C fan for approximately 30 minutes until crispy and golden.
