Making rice paper
Before making the rice paper, add chopped green onions and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil into the bowl of flour and mix well. Heat a pan on the stove, then scoop the batter into the pan, shaking the pan to spread the batter evenly across the surface. Each time you scoop the batter, be sure to stir the bowl of batter well to avoid having a thick layer settle at the bottom while the top remains thin.
Cover the pan for about 2 minutes, keep the heat low, and wait for the batter to turn translucent, indicating that the rice paper is cooked. Transfer the rice paper to a cutting board and roll it up, continuing to make rice paper until all the batter is used.
Tip: To prevent the rice paper from sticking to the cutting board, you should apply a little cooking oil to the surface of the board before rolling.
