Other Ingredients
- Spring Roll Sheets
- Oil for deep frying.
Method:
- Cook the sausages as per packet instructions. When cooled down, chop them finely (sort of like mince, but it's ok if there are few tiny chunks)
- Mix in the remaining filling ingredients and place the mixture in the fridge for 20 min.
- Take a spring roll pastry sheet and place some of the filling mixture on the lower part.*
- Fold bottom edge up, the left and right edges over and then roll up to the end. Seal the end by putting a little water.
- Heat up the oil on medium heat and fry the rolls until golden and crunchy.
- Serve hot with the dipping sauce.
* Generally I take 2 Spring Roll Sheets at a time if I am making jumbo rolls as they hold the filling better. If you are making a small cigar type spring roll then 1 sheet is fine.
