involtini primavera - springrolls |
Let's spring-rolls !! As I said when I post about dumplings , one of my favorite Chinese food are spring-rolls.
One of my troubles was the wrappers, Is almost impossible to find it in the town where I live. Maybe somewhere in Turin is available, but I have no idea where to find it!
In an Italian website I find a recipe that suggest in this case how to prepare wrappers myself, so I tried this.
with 200 gr of white flour and some water, I prepared a simply dough , like the one of dumplings!
with this dough I made some flat wrappers as in the picture.
For the filling I had some cabbages , some leeks , some carrots and half onion plus some salt.
At this point I simply rolled the filling in many spring-rolls using the wrappers I made.
OK the shape is not perfect :-)
Now I had just to fry my spring-rolls .
After this I put spring-rolls on some cooking paper to adsorb the extra oil.
OK spring-rolls are ready!
I think the taste was quite good and enough similar to the one I ate at Chinese restaurant, next time I ll have just to add some salt to the flour pastry. It was a little to much sweet at the end!!
I have also in my mind some variations in fillings, I think this procedure is also good to try some "sofficini" like rolls. :-)
You did an excellent job with these spring rolls. I have never tried to make them from scratch. Thank you for stopping by my blog. I am following back.
