Vegetable Springrolls

Spring rolls-Vegetable

(can be made with the addition of chicken-how I made mine.)

Ingredients:

1/2 sweet onion- sliced top to bottom into strips

1 1/2 large carrots-cut julienne (thin 1/4" x 2"-3"long strips)

celery-2 stalks cut julienne (thin 2"-3" strips)

1/2 cup cheddar cheese

herbs-salt, pepper, rosemary, dill

3/4 cup chicken (optional)

8 spring roll wrappers (available at the supermarket ready to use)

l egg-beat with fork

If you want sauce-Hoison sauce-(avail at the market)-2 tsp per person

                             Apricot Preserves (jelly)-2 tsp per person

Mix these 2 together and sauce is ready.

         Directions:  heat your pan, add olive oil to the pan, maybe 3 tbsp.  , then the vegetables.  Add the herbs & Saute until almost done, stop. cool. Then mix with the cut up chicken (opt.) and the cheese.  Use store bought spring roll wrappers (won ton wrappers work too if that all they have, just make more little ones).   Use the wrappers putting one corner toward you. brush the 3 edges with beaten egg.add the mixed filling, trying to get some of all of the ingredients in each one.  roll tightly but not so tight they break.  place filling in the middle, pull up the corner nearest you and fold it over, pull it back slightly. then tuck in the sides, and roll forward, it should close up nicely.  then fry in canola oil until crispy, and serve with hoisin sauce or the hoisin and apricot preserves mix.  Hope you like this one.
