Ingredients

• 1 lb Fresh rice noodle sheets
• 0.75 lb Shrimp
• 0.25 cup Light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Sugar
• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 2 Scallions
• 2 tbsp Peanut oil

Steps

1. Simmer the soy, sugar, and 1/4 cup of water 3 minutes into a sweet-salty pouring sauce; keep warm.
2. If the noodle sheets are cold, steam them 3 minutes to soften. Lay a sheet flat and line shrimp along one edge.
3. Roll the sheet up snugly around the shrimp into a fat cylinder, then cut into 3-inch lengths. Handle gently — fresh rice noodles tear if you bully them.
4. Steam the rolls 5 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and the noodles turn glossy.
5. Slide onto plates, spoon over the warm soy sauce, and finish with sesame oil and scallions. Eat immediately; cheung fun waits for no one.
