Ingredients

4 teaspoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil

Batter

1 cup rice flour (not the glutinous kind)
1 tablespoon glutinous rice flour or sub with cornstarch/tapioca starch/potato starch
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups water cold

Garnishes

3 tbsp sweet soy sauce or dark soy sauce mixed with 2 teaspoon white sugar
1 scallion finely chopped
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

To make the batter: In a large bowl or a large measuring cup with a lip, whisk together rice flour, glutinous rice flour and salt until well combined. Pour cold water into the dry ingredients and whisk well. Set aside.
In a large wok, fill it one-third of the way with water and place a wire rack or a bamboo steamer on top of the water. Place a 10 x 8-inch baking tray onto the wire rack or bamboo steamer and ensure it's perfectly levelled or batter will pool in certain areas creating a uneven texture. Brush 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil on the tray. Then bring the water to boil over medium-high heat.
Mix the batter again and then pour ½ cup or 250 ml into the tray, aiming for the middle, to create a thin rice noodle sheet.
Cover with a lid and steam for 4 minutes until you see large bubbles form under the rice noodle sheet. Do not open the lid.
Next turn off the heat completely and remove the lid. Use two spatulas or a dough cutter to lift the edge of the rice noodle sheet and roll it away from you. The roll should be 1 inch thick.
Slice in the roll in half with a thin bladed spatula or dough cutter. Transfer to your serving plate. Repeat this process until you have 3 more rolls. Garnish with sweet soy sauce, scallions, and sesame seeds and enjoy!
