METHOD:

Cover mushrooms with hot water and soak for 20 minutes. Remove stalks and chop mushrooms. Heat peanut and sesame oil in a wok and slowly fry garlic and ginger for a few seconds. Add meat, raise heat and stir fry until it changes color. Add prepared vegetables, soy sauce and salt. Combine thoroughly. Push mixture to one side and tilt wok so liquid gathers. Stir in cornflour, which has been mixed with a little cold water until smooth.

Cook stirring, until thick. Remove from heat and mix thickened liquid into the filling. Allow to cool completely. Put 2 tablespoons of mixture at one end of spring roll wrapper and roll up, turning in the sides so that filling is completely enclosed. Dampen edges with water or a mixture of cornflour and water and press to seal. Fry one or two at a time in deep hot oil until golden brown. Drain on absorbant paper and serve immediately with chilli sauce if liked. (roll as for blintzes) Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest V97 #007 From: alotzkar@... (Al)
