Yummy Spring Rolls With Shitake Mushroom Filling Recipes

Steps:

• To make the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, combine sambal oelek, honey, lemon juice, rice wine vinegar and salt. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate up to a week.
• To make the spring rolls: Combine butter and garlic in a sauté pan over medium high heat, and stir until butter is foamy and garlic is fragrant but not browned. Add oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, chili and salt to taste. Cover and cook over medium heat until mushrooms have released their juices and are soft and glazed, about 6 minutes. Add lemon zest, ginger and chervil or tarragon, and sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat and spread across a small plate. Place in the freezer, uncovered, mixing occasionally until very cold, about 15 minutes.
• Place a spring roll wrapper in front of you, like a diamond, so a point faces you. Lightly brush the four corners of the wrapper with beaten egg yolk. Place 2 tablespoons of the mushroom mixture into the bottom quarter of the wrapper. Starting from the bottom corner, roll the wrapper, folding in the side corners so they get wrapped up, and keep rolling until closed. Repeat to make 8 rolls.
• In a deep fryer, wok or skillet, heat oil to 350 degrees. Add spring rolls, working in batches if necessary, and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels. If desired, season lightly with salt and white pepper. Divide dipping sauce among 4 very small bowls, and place a bowl on each of 4 plates. Place 2 lettuce leaves on each plate, place a spring roll on each leaf. Wrap spring rolls in the lettuce and dip.

Steps:

• Remove any hard fibrous stems from the mushrooms and clean carefully by brushing the mushrooms with a damp cloth or mushroom brush to remove excess dirt. Place the mushrooms in a food processor and pulse quickly to chop into 1/4-inch bits.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the mushrooms to the pan and saute until the mushrooms begin to sweat, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chopped shallots and ginger and saute until translucent. Sprinkle in the five spice powder and chopped scallions, season with salt and pepper and stir in the sesame oil. Set aside to cool.
• Lay out the egg roll wrappers and cut into 4 equal squares. Brush a square of wrapper with some water, place a dollop of the mushroom mixture in the center and roll the sides of the wrapper inwards to enclose the filling. Rolling away from yourself, roll up the wrapper into a cigar shape and enclose the filling completely. Seal the ends with some of the water. Continue to finish filling the wrappers and refrigerate them several hours to firm them before cooking.
• Heat the oil in a deep skillet to 345 degrees. Fry the spring rolls, in batches, until crisp. In a bowl, combine the ingredients of the dipping sauce and serve with the spring rolls.
• Place all of the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor and pulse rapidly to a very coarse texture. Do not make too soft or pasty. Fill the springroll wrappers with the shrimp filling and follow all directions for cooking.;

Steps:

• In a hot wok or saute pan add the oil followed by the garlic, ginger and chile. Be careful not to burn. Add the hoisin and briefly saute to get the raw taste out. Add the shiitakes, leeks and bean sprouts. Check for seasoning. Let cool in a strainer and drain well. When cool, add the cilantro, scallions and bean thread. Lay out a lumpia wrapper with corner facing you. Place a small mound at the bottom, moisten edges with eggwash and roll bottom corner towards the middle. Fold in both sides and continue rolling. Finish roll and let rest. Deep fry at 350 degrees until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve with mint dipping sauce.
• Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.

Steps:

• Mix the cornstarch, soy sauce, and 1/3 cup water in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a wok or a wide skillet. When a haze appears, add the mushrooms, scallions, ginger, and carrot and stir fry for about 3 minutes. Add the cabbage, sprinkle with 1 teaspoons salt, and stir fry until bright green and starting to turn limp, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in cornstarch mixture and stir fry until the veggies are coated and the pan is dry, 1-3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Taste for salt and move the vegetables to a bowl to cool.
• Form the spring rolls by laying the egg roll wrapper on the counter at a diagonal, with a corner facing you. Heap 2 tbls. of the filling crosswise, near the base. Cover it with sprouts before rolling. Fold up the lower corner, fold in the outer corners, then wrap. Repeat, using the rest of the filling. Place the egg rolls on a plate and cover with wax paper, then with plastic, until ready to cook.
• To cook, heat 1/2" peanut oil in a medium skillet until hot enough to quickly sizzle a corner of an egg roll. Add two egg rolls and fry until golden, about 2 minutes. Turn and fry the second side, then remove to paper toweling to drain. Continue frying the rest. Serve hot with or without dipping sauce. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix the cabbage, shrimp, sweet and sour sauce, celery and carrots.
• Fill a small bowl with hot water. Dip rice wrappers one at a time into the water. Allow wrappers to soften, then remove from the water and drain. As wrappers are removed from the water, fill each with 2 tablespoons of the cabbage mixture. Roll the wrappers and chill covered until serving.

Steps:

• Soak the vermicelli 30 minutes in warm water; drain.
• In a large bowl, mix the vermicelli, eggs, onion, mushrooms, shrimp, pork, vegetable oil, carrot, crabmeat, bean sprouts, pepper, soy sauce, fish sauce and garlic.
• One by one, moisten the rice wrappers with a damp tea towel and fill with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the vermicelli mixture. Roll the wrappers, and allow them to set for 30 minutes.
• In a large saucepan, heat the oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Fry the spring rolls one or two at a time until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Place the noodles in a heatproof bowl and pour over boiling water. Leave to soak for 10 minutes (or follow the packet instructions). Once softened, drain and return to the bowl, tossing in a little oil to prevent them from sticking. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan over a high heat and add the mince. Stirring continuously, fry the ground chicken until cooked through and well browned. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat another 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan over a medium-high heat, add the mushrooms and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until cooked through. Add the carrots and bean sprouts and stir for 1 minute, then add the garlic and cook for a further 1 minute. Return the cooked chicken to the pan along with the noodles and spring onions, stirring for a further 1 minute. Finally, add the kecap manis, oyster sauce, fish sauce and lime juice, then continue to cook for a further 2 minutes or until the sauce is clinging to the meat. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. (It is better for the filling to taste fairly strong at this stage because the spring roll wrapper absorbs a lot of the flavor during cooking.) Set aside to cool.
• Lay a clean tea towel over the spring roll wrappers to prevent them from drying out. Line a tray with baking parchment. Cut a chunk of banana with the skin on to use as glue for the spring roll. (Alternatively, you can use beaten egg.) Peel one wrapper off the top of the pile and lay it on a chopping board, facing you like a diamond. Place 1-2 tablespoons of the filling on the bottom third of the wrapper. Roll the bottom corner of the wrapper up over the filling and then continue rolling until you reach the middle. Fold in the left and right corners, then rub the flesh of the banana along the edges of the exposed top corner of the wrapper. (If using beaten egg, brush this on instead.) Finish rolling up the rest of the wrapper and seal the final corner. Place the spring roll on the tray. Repeat with more wrappers until all the filling is used up.
• Fill a deep saucepan one-third full with oil. Heat the oil to 320°F/160°C. (If you do not have a kitchen thermometer, check the oil is at temperature by adding a cube of bread; it should turn golden in 25-30 seconds.)
• Carefully lower 4-6 spring rolls into the hot oil, without overcrowding the pan. Deep-fry for 4-6 minutes or until golden all over. Transfer to a tray lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining spring rolls. Serve immediately, with sambal or dipping sauce, if you like.
• Do Ahead: The spring rolls can be frozen in a single layer on a tray, then piled into a bag or container and kept in the freezer for up to 3 months. If cooking from frozen, cook for 6-7 minutes, or until golden. Once cooked they last for up to 2 days in the fridge and can be reheated in the oven for 10 minutes at 325°F/170°C/150°C fan/gas 3.
• Variations
• Vegetable spring rolls: Omit the ground meat from the recipe and instead triple the quantity of carrots, shiitake and bean sprouts. The remaining ingredients should stay the same. If you want to make the recipe vegetarian, replace the oyster sauce and fish sauce with light soy sauce, adding a little at a time until you are happy with the flavor. Once added to the pan, simmer to reduce this extra soy sauce for a couple of minutes.
• Pan-fried spring rolls: Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over a medium-high heat. Gently place the prepared spring rolls in the hot oil, cooking in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan. Continue turning the spring rolls in the hot oil until they are golden all over, about 5 minutes, adding more oil if necessary. Transfer to a tray lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil, then to a baking tray lined with baking parchment, and finish cooking in the oven for 7-10 minutes.
