Making delicious vegetarian spring rolls cha gio chay appetizers is a simple process that anyone can master. Here are the step-by-step instructions you need to follow to make these mouthwatering appetizers at home.
Ingredients:
* 1 pound ground pork
* 1 package of rice noodle wrappers (8-inch diameter)
* 2 cups chopped cabbage
* 1/2 cup shredded carrots
* 1/4 cup finely sliced green onions
* 2 cloves garlic (minced)
* 1 tablespoon soy sauce
* 1 tablespoon sesame oil
* 1 teaspoon sugar
* 1 teaspoon cornstarch
* Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the ground pork, cabbage, carrots, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and cornstarch. Stir well until everything is evenly distributed.
Step 2: Take out one wrapper and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spoon about two tablespoons of the pork filling onto the center of the wrapper. Fold in the sides first, followed by the top and bottom of the wrapper to form a triangular shape. Roll the spring roll tightly towards the pointy end.
Step 3: Repeat this process with all the wrappers and filling until you have used up all the ingredients.
Step 4: In a deep frying pan, heat about two inches of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the spring rolls into the oil in batches of four or five. Fry for about three minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 5: Drain the spring rolls on paper towels and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
If you want to make these vegetarian spring rolls even more delicious, you can add some chopped mushrooms or water chestnuts to the filling for extra texture and flavor.
