Ingredients
  

  • 10 rice paper sheets
  • 2 cups cooked vermicelli rice noodles (or zucchini noodles for a low-carb option)
  • 1 cup shredded or blanched carrots or zucchini
  • 1 cup finely shredded cabbage or napa cabbage
  • 1 cup tofu, shrimp, or chopped cabbage
  • 2 stalks green onion or chives, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • Vegetable oil spray (preferably avocado oil spray)

Method
 

  1. Soak rice paper sheets in warm water for 10-15 seconds until pliable.
  2. On a damp kitchen towel, place a noodle base first, then add layer of blanched carrots/zucchini, cabbage, and protein in the center.
  3. Fold the left and right sides inward, then roll tightly downward to enclose the fillings completely.
  4. Lightly brush or spray air fryer-safe oil over the exterior of the rolls.
  5. Set air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place rolls seam-side down in the air fryer basket, ensuring there is 1 inch of space between each roll.
  6. Air fry for 10 minutes or until golden and crispy.

Notes

For a vegan option: use tofu instead of shrimp and check for vegan labeling on all condiments.
Use gluten-free tamari instead of soy sauce if needed.
Store unrolled wraps in an airtight container for up to 2 days before frying.
For extra crunch, roast shredded carrots briefly in the oven before wrapping.
