I really wanted dumplings. Unfortunately I had no wonton wrappers, so I experimented with ways to make the spring roll wrappers I had work. I really enjoyed the result!
- spring roll dumplings
- 250 grams beef mince
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp ginger puree
- 1 tsp chili puree
- 1 tsp chili puree
- 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- 8 spring roll wrappers cut into quarters
- 1 a bowl with equal amounts flour and water mixed into a paste that can be applied with a pastry brush About 4tbsp of each should do it but you might need more
- soup
- 800 ml water
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp ginger puree
- 1 tsp Thai 5 spice
- 800 ml packet mix chicken noodle soup
- Combine all your spring roll ingredients except the flour and water mix and wrappers
- Place your cut up wrappers under a damp cloth to stop them drying out
- Apply your flour and water paste to one of the squares and stick another square to it
- Brush more mix around the edges of the square
- Add 1Tbsp of mix near to one of the corners
- Roll up your wrapper halfway fold the sides in and then finish rolling it up You might want to look on YouTube to get it right
- Repeat this with all your wrappers You should be able to make 16 rolls
- Fry your spring rolls for approximately 2 minutes on each side
- While your spring rolls fry combine your soup ingredients and bring to the boil
- Add your spring rolls to your soup and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes
- Serve and enjoy!
