Vegetarian Spring Rolls

Spring rolls have long been a traditional dish in Vietnam, enjoyed throughout all three regions of the country. Each area has its own variations based on local ingredients and climate. Spring rolls are so delicious that CNN named them one of the 50 best foods in the world in 2011, and they were also listed among the 11 signature Vietnamese dishes in the Asian culinary records in 2012. Freshly fried spring rolls have a crispy exterior, while the inside is soft and sweet from the vegetables, creating a truly delightful eating experience. As a spring roll lover, I just can't resist them! The rolls are crispy, the filling is tender with the rich flavor of vegetables, the aroma of mushrooms, and the perfect blend of seasonings. All these flavors come together in each little roll, making me want to eat more and more.

Steps

Cut the jicama into 1/4-inch (0.5 cm) thick slices, pan-fry both sides until translucent, then cut into thin strips. Rinse the bean sprouts and drain well. Blanch the tofu in boiling water, wrap in a clean cloth and squeeze out excess water, then mash until smooth and elastic. Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms until soft, squeeze out excess water, and chop finely. Soak the glass noodles until soft, then cut into 3/4-inch (2 cm) pieces. Cut the taro or sweet potato into thin strips. Cut the carrot into thin strips. Soak the straw mushrooms in salt water and a little cornstarch, rinse well, drain, and chop finely. Soak the wood ear mushrooms until soft, then cut into short strips.

FILLING: Mix all the prepared ingredients above with 2 teaspoons vegetarian seasoning, 2 teaspoons ground black pepper, 2 teaspoons sugar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons glutinous rice flour, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (you can substitute 1 large egg if you are not strictly vegetarian). Put on gloves and mix the filling well so the seasonings are evenly distributed. SHAPING: Place a spring roll wrapper on a tray, add the filling (as much as you like), fold in the sides, and roll up tightly. Fry the spring rolls in a pan until lightly golden, remove and drain on paper towels, and let cool. When ready to eat, fry a second time until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
