About Rice noodle rolls

Rice noodle rolls, or 'cheung fun,' are a beloved dish in Cantonese cuisine, originating from southern China. Made from a thin batter of rice flour and water, they are steamed into delicate, translucent sheets, then rolled or folded. Often filled with shrimp, pork, or vegetables, they are served with a savory soy-based sauce. Rice noodle rolls are low in fat, naturally gluten-free, and a good source of carbohydrates, which provide energy. Without fillings, they are relatively simple in terms of macronutrients, but fillings like shrimp or vegetables can add protein, fiber, and essential nutrients.
