Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Vietnamese Grilled Rice Paper
  1. Prepare toppings by finely slicing the chopped green onions and vegan sausage, and measuring out the cooked corn kernels and fried shallots.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond milk, chickpea flour, cornstarch, nutritional yeast, kala namak salt, and turmeric until smooth. Allow it to sit while heating the skillet.
  3. Place a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and lay one rice paper sheet in it, sprinkling chopped green onions evenly.
  4. Pour approximately 3 tablespoons of the vegan egg mixture over the rice paper, spreading it evenly. The mixture should gently bubble as it cooks.
  5. After 3-5 minutes, when the edges turn golden, add half of the prepared vegan sausage, corn, and fried shallots on top, pressing down gently.
  6. Drizzle with sweet chili sauce and vegan mayo, then fold the edges inwards. Repeat with the second rice paper sheet for another serving.
