Spicy Apricot Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the dip: In a small bowl, stir together the marinade, preserves, mustard and hot sauce.
• For the spring rolls: In a bowl, mix together the shrimp, slaw and marinade. Place a spring roll wrapper on your work surface with 1 of the corners facing you so it looks like a diamond. (Keep the spring roll wrappers covered with a damp towel so they don't dry out). Place 2 tablespoons filling on the lower third of the wrapper. Spread the filling out in a line from side to side. Roll the bottom corner up over the filling, and then fold in the sides. Moisten the top corner with some water, using your finger or a brush, and roll the filling over it so it sticks to itself and forms a seal. Place seam-side down on a plate and keep covered with a damp towel while you make the remaining rolls.
• When you are ready to cook, fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to come up about 3 inches from the bottom. Place over medium-high heat and bring to 360 degrees F. Add the spring rolls, a few at a time, and cook until they are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and keep warm while you fry the rest. Serve with the spicy apricot mustard dip.

Reduce the heat to the lowest possible point, cover tightly, and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the apricots are soft and have absorbed almost all of the liquid in the pan. Watch carefull for any signs of burning.
• Puree the apricots by rubbing them through a fine sieve or food mill set over a bowl, or pulverize them in the jar of an electric blender. With a rubber spatula scrape them into a bowl.
• Add the vinegar, sugar, honey, paprika and salt and beat vigorously with a spoon or whisk until the mixture is smooth. Cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to use. (The sauce can be kept in the refrigerator for 2 or 3 months.).
