Today I thought I'd try my hand at spring rolls/egg rolls/ arolloditos de primavera.
Chopped up some bean sprouts, carrots, spring onions, basil, lettuce. Wanted to put in some cilantro, but like usual, the little cilantro that I had left had gone off. Those are Vero's hands by the way, not mine.
Roll up the veggies in the pastry. I bought the pastry this morning in a chinese supermarket. Try to make it tight. My first attempt was a loose and saggy disaster. I'd looked for some shrimp this morning in La Boqueria to put in them, but the only shrimp they had were waayyyy to big.
Fry for a couple of minutes until golden brown (more than this). We had ours with some rice, sriracha sauce and some soy sauce. They came out quite well, gave me lots of ideas for the future. And it's quite light for the summer.
