Steps

1

Remove the skin and bones off the salmon and cut into bite sized pieces. Put it into a plastic bag with the kan-koji or shio-koji and sugar. Press the air out of the bag, and leave to marinate for 10 minutes.
2

Add the butter for sauteing to a pan, and turn the heat on to medium (IH 3). Add the salmon with the koji to the pan and cook through. Cut the spinach and shimeji mushrooms into bite sized pieces.
3

Add the spinach and mushrooms to the pan and saute quickly. Transfer to a bowl. Wash the pan, add the oil, heat, and turn the heat off.
4

Mix the cooked salmon mixture from Step 3 with the bechamel sauce, and wrap with the spring roll wrappers. Put the spring rolls in the heated oil, and coat with the oil.
5

Preheat the oven to 480F/250C. Line up the oil-covered spring rolls on a rack and bake for 10-15 minutes.
6

Since they are oven-baked, the spring rolls stay crispy even if they sit for a while. Plus you don't have oil spitting all over the place, so cleanup is easy!
