Servings 1 person
Equipment
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 3 rice paper sheets
- 1 egg whisked
- 9 slices pepperoni or spicy salami
- 1 cup mozzarella cubed
- 3 tablespoons pizza sauce
- Fresh basil torn
- Sesame seeds for topping
- Warm marinara or spicy honey for serving
Instructions
Prep the rice paper
- Whisk the egg on a shallow plate. Dip each rice paper sheet into the egg wash just until pliable. Lay them overlapping slightly on a lightly oiled surface to form one large sheet.
Build the filling
- Layer pepperoni evenly across the rice paper. Add cubed mozzarella. Spoon pizza sauce down the center in a long strip and finish with torn basil.
Roll
- Roll the rice paper tightly into a cylinder, sealing the edge as you go. Gently coil the roll into a compact spiral.
Finish
- Brush the top lightly with remaining egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake or air fry
- Bake or air fry at 400°F (205°C) for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden, crisp, and melty inside.
Serve
- Serve hot with warm marinara or a drizzle of spicy honey.
Notes
- Go lighter on the sauce than you think. You can always dip, but too much sauce inside will soften the shell.
- If the spiral feels loose before baking, gently tuck the end underneath itself on the tray to keep it snug.
- This formula works with sausage, mushrooms, olives, or hot honey ricotta if you want to riff.
