Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 ounces cellophane noodles
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
2 cooked chicken breast halves, diced (about 2 cups)
1 cup shredded carrots
1 cup shredded cabbage
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons freshly chopped scallions
12 spring roll wrappers
Lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Soak cellophane noodles in hot water for 10 minutes, until tender.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute. Add chicken, carrots, cabbage, and soy sauce and cook 2 minutes, until vegetables wilt. Stir in noodles and scallions and toss to combine.
  • Arrange spring roll wrappers on a flat surface. Top each wrapper with an equal amount of chicken mixture across the center (from point to point). Roll up bottom point, tuck in sides and roll up. Using moistened fingers, wet the last point and roll up to seal.
  • Arrange lettuce leaves in the bottom of a steamer basket or colander over simmering water. Place spring rolls on lettuce, cover and steam 5 minutes, until wrappers are translucent.

Time 40m

Yield 6 large rolls

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 small boneless skinless chicken breasts, about 5oz each, without skin and boneless
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese five spice powder
4 dried Chinese mushrooms, soaked in hot water for 20 minutes and drained
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 inch piece fresh gingerroot, grated
3 ounces bean sprouts
2 scallions, finely sliced
1 carrot, finely sliced
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese five spice powder
12 spring roll wrappers
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
3 cups peanut oil, for deep frying

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife, dice the chicken into 1/4in pieces. Heat the groundnut oil in a wok over a high heat and stir-fry the chicken for 2-3 minutes, stirring all the time.
  • Season with soy sauce and sprinkle with five spice powder before taking the chicken out of the wok and leaving on one side to cool.
  • In a large bowl, mix the mushrooms, garlic, ginger, beansprouts, scallions, and sliced carrot. Add the cooled chicken and stir well to combine everything together.
  • Place two spring roll wrappers on top of each other, and spoon two tablespoons of the chicken filling in the centre of the layered sheet.
  • Mix the cornstarch with the water and use to brush over the wrapper edges - this helps stop the spring rolls from bursting open while frying. Fold each of the opposite corners in, over the filling, and roll the wrapper into a cigar shape.
  • Deep fry the spring rolls in hot oil, over a medium heat, until golden brown - about 3-5 minutes. Drain on absorbent paper before serving with sweet chilli sauce.
