Thank you for dropping by and commenting. I'm sorry that I couldn't find the button to reply individually.
Cristale: yes, of course, you can make fish and many other types of summer roll, I made the char-grilled fish summer roll and oven bake summer roll, both of them received good feedbacks.
Handicapped Chef: I'm glad that you like it, if you could get hold of sweet basil, please add to the recipe.
This is a very nice dish looks light and tasty I will be trying this and sharing with friends.
It could use some fish, but it looks pretty.
