- 15-20 spring roll paper
- 2 cups imitation crab meat (chopped or shredded)
- 250 g cream cheese (1 package)
- 3/4 cups mozzarella cheese
- 3-4 tsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2-3 stalks green onions (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
-
Leave the cream cheese in room temperature for an hour to soften it up
-
Once the cream cheese is soft, mix in the mozzerella, worcestershire sauce, rice vinegar and sugar
-
Chop up or shred the crab meat and mix it into the cheese mixture
-
Mince the garlic and finely chop the green onions and add it into the cheese mixture
-
Carefully peel 2-3 spring roll sheets at a time, and keep it covered with a damp cloth or paper towel to prevent it from drying out
-
Working with 1 sheet at a time, put the sheet in front of you with a corner facing you
-
Add a few spoonfuls of crab and cheese mixture near the bottom of the paper (but away from all edges) into a log shape.
-
Start rolling from the bottom, then take 1 side from the left or right and fold it into the centre while rolling.
-
Then take the other side on the left or right side and fold it into the centre and continue to roll
-
Wet the top corner with water or egg (which will be the glue to seal the spring roll) and keep rolling until all the paper is sealed.
-
Put aside covered with a damp cloth or paper towel and continue making the rest of the spring rolls
-
Heat up the oil to 350F (176C), and fry them for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
- If you are deep frying these on a stove top in a pot, use medium heat and keep a close eye on them, when they turn golden brown pull them out. They still continue to cook after they have been pulled out of the oil.
-
Volia! Enjoy these crispy bite sized little snacks!
- If your spring rolls don't stay sealed with water, you can use an egg to seal it
- Keep the spring roll papers and spring rolls covered with a damp cloth or paper towel so they don't dry out
- Leave the cream cheese out in room temperature for at least an hour to soften it up, this will make the mixing a lot easier.
- Optional Dipping Sauces : Seafood sauce or Sweet Thai Chilli Sauce!
