Chinese New Year Crispy Spring Rolls: Easy and Delicious Recipe

Step 1

Prepare Ingredients:

Soak the 30g vermicelli in warm water for 30 minutes.

Soak and rinse the 10g dried shrimp.

Clean and chop the 100g chives into small pieces and set aside.

Step 2

Cook Vermicelli:

Place the soaked vermicelli into boiling water and cook over medium-low heat for 2 minutes, then remove and cut into 1-2 cm pieces. Set aside.

Step 3

Scramble the Eggs:

Crack 3 eggs into a bowl, add 0.5g of salt, and beat them well.

Cook the eggs over low heat, scrambling them until they are soft and lightly cooked.

Step 4

Make the Filling:

In a large bowl, combine the chives, eggs, vermicelli, and dried shrimp.

Add 5g sesame oil, 7g soy sauce, 5g oyster sauce, 1g sugar, and 1g salt, then mix everything well.

Step 5

Wrap the Spring Rolls:

Place a spring roll skin on a flat surface with one corner facing you, forming a diamond shape.

Add a suitable amount of filling in the center of the skin, stacking it into a line. Be careful not to overfill to avoid spilling when wrapping.

Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, pressing it lightly to secure the filling inside.

Fold both sides of the wrapper towards the center to partially overlap, further encasing the filling, forming a rectangle.

Roll the spring roll from the folded sides upwards, sealing the top with a little water or flour paste to prevent it from opening during frying.

Step 6

Fry the Spring Rolls

Pour enough cooking oil into a pan to submerge the spring rolls. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 160-170°C (320-340°F).

Gently place the spring rolls one by one into the oil, being careful not to add too many at once to prevent them from sticking together.

Let the spring rolls fry for a while before flipping. Once the bottom sets, gently turn the spring rolls to ensure even frying on all sides. Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

When the spring rolls turn golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon.

Step 8

Serve and Enjoy
