Spring Rolls Recipe
Description
This Spring Rolls Recipe focuses on assembling and frying delicate spring roll wrappers filled with seasoned ingredients. The wrapper is layered with filling, then carefully folded and sealed using beaten egg to keep the roll tight and prevent oil from entering during frying. Deep frying at 350°F until golden produces a crispy exterior that maintains a moist and flavorful interior.
Serving the spring rolls hot ensures a crunchy texture and vibrant flavor. They pair well with mild chilli or sweet chili dipping sauce, which complements the savory filling and adds additional flavor.
To maintain crispness, drain the fried rolls on paper towels to remove excess oil immediately after frying. This recipe benefits from working with room temperature, thawed spring roll wrappers for easier handling and folding.
Ingredients
Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 dashes ground white pepper or to taste
- 1 packet spring roll wrappers thaw to room temperature, frozen
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
Instructions
HOW TO WRAP SPRING ROLLS:
- To wrap a spring roll, place a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of filling lengthwise along the center of the wrapper. DO NOT OVERFILL. Using a small brush or your index finger, dab the beaten egg around the outer edges of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom part of the wrapper over the filling. Fold the left and right sides of the wrapper over the filling, making sure the filling is packed tightly. Roll the spring roll tightly until it reaches the other end of the wrapper. Ensure the spring roll is sealed tightly with no leakage. Repeat the steps until all the filling is used up.
- Heat 2 to 3 inches (5-7 cm) of oil in a wok or small saucepan to 350°F (176°C) for deep frying. Gently drop the spring rolls into the oil and fry in batches. Deep fry until golden brown.
- Remove the spring rolls using a strainer or slotted spoon, draining the excess oil onto a plate lined with paper towels. Serve immediately.
Notes
- A mild chili sauce or sweet chili sauce enhances the flavor as a dipping sauce.
