A Rice noodle roll (also translated as steamed rice roll) is a Cantonese dish from southern China and Hong Kong, commonly served as a variety of dim sum. It is a thin roll made from a wide strip of Shahe fen (rice noodles), filled with shrimp, pork, vegetables, or other ingredients. Sweet soy sauce is poured over the dish upon serving. A very similar dish is the Vietnamese bánh cuốn.
