Method
1. Have all ingredients laid out in a production line.
2. Working with 1 sheet of rice paper at a time, dip into warm water for about 10 seconds, turning until it begins to soften. Drain excess water. Lay on a clean work surface.
3. Place a few slices of carrot, cucumber, capsicum, avocado, chicken, lettuce and herbs at one side of the wrapper.
