Cheung Fun Rice Noodle Rolls

Cheung fun, aka rice noodle rolls are a classic dim sum favorite but did you know you can make them right at home?!
When I was a kid we went to dim sum every single Sunday. My favorite thing, always and forever will be rice noodle rolls. We would get an entire order just for me and even when I was small, I could finish the entire dish. I mean, I can still finish the entire dish but it’s not as impressive as an adult is it? Dim sum Sundays is still a thing for my husband and I, and of course we always, always order rice noodle rolls.
I love them plain, I love them stuffed with shrimp, I love them bursting with beef, I love them packed with pork, and I love them chock-full of chinese donuts. I freaking love rice noodle rolls.
Rice noodle rolls, or Cheung Fun 腸粉, are a Chinese, Cantonese specifically, thin wide rice noodle that’s rolled up. They can be served filled with shrimp, beef, or other ingredients and also rolled up and served plain. Rice noodle rolls are served as a snack, small meal, or part of dim sum. They’re super popular in Hong Kong and all over the world. Rice noodle rolls are pure comfort food. If you’ve ever had dim sum, you’ve probably had rice noodle rolls. Rice noodle rolls are also the same as the rice noodles in chow fun, just cut up into noodles, instead of being rolled.
