How To Make Spring Rolls
- Serves:
- 2
- Preparation Time:
- 35 minutes
- Cooking Time:
- 10 minutes
- Total Time:
- 45 minutes
Step 1: You will need
- 30 g glass noodles
- 2 cloves of garlic,chopped
- 100 g prawn meat, chopped
- 150 g pork meat, minced
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 2 tbsp coriander, chopped
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
- 2 tbsp cornflour
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 ltr vegetable oil
- 25 spring roll wraps
- 1 damp tea towel
- 2 bowls
- 1 wok
- 1 slotted spoon
- 1 tray
- 1 paper towel
- 1 wooden spoon
- 1 spoon
- 1 saucepan
Step 2: Prepare the noodles
Break the noodles into a bowl and pour over enough hot water to cover. Allow them to soften for a few minutes. And when soft enough remove and drain.
Step 3: Soak the wraps if needed
Place the rice wraps into a large bowl and cover with cold water, pushing them down into the water. And leave them to soften for a few minutes.
A useful tip! There are many types of spring rolls for example wheat flour and rice flour. We are using rice flour for our spring rolls and they will need pre soaking. Wheat flour gives a crispier result and doesn't need pre-soaking.
Step 4: Cook the filling mix
Place the wok on a high heat and allow it to warm through. Spoon in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, then add the pork meat. Stir it in well with your wooden spoon helping to break the meat up
Next, add the prawns, garlic and carrots, then combine well.
Now add the noodles and stir in. Add the fish sauce, sweet chilli sauce and coriander and then give it all a good mix. Remove from the heat and allow to cool down.
Step 5: Dry the wraps
Carefully remove a sheet of rice paper wrap from the bowl of water… and place it on the tea towel. Now turn both the sheets over and let them dry the other side. Repeat until all the wraps are dry.
Step 6: Mix the corn flour
Add 2 tablespoons of water into the bowl of corn flour and mix it well together.
Step 7: Make the spring rolls
Spoon 1 tablespoon of the meat mix onto a sheet of rice wrap. Roll it up, then fold both sides, continue to roll it up into an oblong parcel, dabbing some of the corn flour mix at the ends to help it stick down. Continue to roll and fold the ends over.
Take another sheet, place onto the tea towel, spoon on the meat mix, roll it up and fold the sides. Continue to roll up, dabbing some corn flour on the edges and fold the edges to close it.
Continue with the same process on all of the rice wraps until you have used all the rice sheets.
Step 8: Fry the spring rolls
Using your slotted spoon, individually place half of the rolls into a pan of very hot oil. Fry for roughly three minutes, moving them slightly with the slotted spoon so they don't stick together.
Then remove them with your slotted spoon and place on a tray with some kitchen towel to drain.
Add the second batch into the oil and fry until nice and crispy. Once cooked remove from the pan and place on the tray to drain again.
Step 9: Serve
Serve with some nice spicy dipping sauce.
Tips & Comments
why can't you down unto a memory stick or pen. producers of the video and website are very discriminatory in that they should know that each and everyone of us is different and not all of us PSP, iphone or a mobile with memory cards
This is absolutely not Vietnamese spring roll neither fresh one or fried one :-)
it's not spring roll of Vietnamese.
thank you very much for this video, i love to eat spring rolles, but I didn't know how to cook. waw I m gonna cook it !!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think vietnamese springroll didn't like that, may be the cook didn't Vietnamese person. If you want to eat spring roll, let't go to Vietnam to enjoy them. However this way is interesting to do.
waw! using wet wappers? this is gonna be hard for the beginers.bocz they'll be tearing easily as it is also seen in the video. Wheat wapers r better as u dont need to soake them.
Spring rolls is well know all over the Asia, not only in Vietnam. This is how we cook in Spore or Philipine. The taste is good and crispy. I like it.
those are not spring rolls those are called SALAD ROLLS and ur not suppose to fried everything together like that..
i look at your sites then mix & match things i like
They use the wrong rice paper size and form. Rice paper is not supposed to put in water so long like that it has to be done each time to roll. They do modify the traditional vietnamese spring roll ingredients.
