Spring Rolls Recipes

I love spring rolls and I think they are the best snacks or appetizers but I never like the spring rolls here because I think they put too much cabbage in it and it smell funny too. I like mine with lots of Jicama, carrots and meat in it. Over here it is easy to get frozen spring roll wrappers and all you have to do is leave the wrappers on the counter for half and hour and is ready to use. As for the filling you can use just about anything you like. Here is how I like my spring rolls.

Ingredients :

1 Jicama (sengkuang) - peel and julienned finely
2 carrots - peel and julienned finely
1 small onion - finely sliced
1 piece of chicken breast - sliced thinly
2 spring onions - slice thinly
2 cloves of garlic - chopped finely
1 egg - beaten
Some spring roll wrappers

Seasoning :

2 tbsp of oyster sauce
3 tbsp of soy sauce
1/2 tsp of sugar
Salt & pepper to taste

1) Thaw the frozen spring roll wrappers.
2) Heat up the frying pan with a tbsp of olive oil. Add in chopped garlic, onions and stir fry until fragrant. Add in chicken. Stir fry for a minute or until it changes color.
3) Add in jicama and carrots. Stir fry for 2 minutes minute and add in all the seasonings and 1/2 cup of water. Continue cooking until for another 2 mintues (you can cook longer if you want a softer fillings)
4) Check seasoning and lastly add in spring onions. Set aside to cool.
5) Peel off a piece of wrapper and place it on a flat surface. Place some cooked filling in the center of the wrapper, pull over both ends and roll up the wrapper. Brush the end with some egg to seal.
6) Heat up some oil in a frying pan and deep fry the spring rolls until golden brown. Drain the oil and serve with some chili sauce.
