How to make the Char Siu Pork Rice Paper Rolls:

  1. Place pork and char siu sauce in a bowl. Set aside 15 mins to marinate. Soak noodles in boiling water in a heatproof bowl 5 mins or until tender. Drain well and snip into shorter lengths. Heat oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook pork, in batches, 2 mins or until browned. Cool slightly.

  2. Place 1 softened rice paper sheet on a clean work surface. Top with coriander, pork, noodles, capsicum and cucumber. Fold in sides, then wrap firmly to enclose filling. Repeat with remaining sheets and filling. Serve with hoisin sauce.
