Rice noodle roll

A rice noodle roll is a Cantonese dish from Guangdong Province in southern China, commonly served either as a snack, small meal or variety of dim sum. It is a thin roll made from a wide strip of shahe fen, filled with shrimp, beef, vegetables, or other ingredients. Seasoned soy sauce—sometimes with siu mei drippings—is poured over the dish upon serving. When plain and made without filling, the rice noodle is also known as jyu cheung fan. The name, jyu cheung fan, “jyu” means “pig” in Cantonese, “cheung” means “intestine”, and “fan” means “noodles”. Combining means the pig intestine noodle roll because the appearance of the noodle roll looks like pig's intestine. There is no official recording of the history of the rice noodle roll. Most cooking books mention that the jyu cheung fan was begun in the 1930s. A snack or breakfast that sold in many street restaurants. In Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, people called it laai cheung because it is a noodle roll that pulled or pushed by hand.
