Vegetarian thai spring rolls

30 rolls

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
12 ounces Tofu
5 eaches Dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked & trimmed
¼ pounds Green beans
1 each Celery stalk
½ medium Carrot
2 eaches Green onions
3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
1 tablespoon Garlic, chopped
½ teaspoon Pepper
2 tablespoons Red curry paste
2 tablespoons Soy sauce
30 eaches Spring roll wrappers
3 cups Vegetable oil, for deep frying

Directions

Cut the tofu, mushrooms, beans, celery & carrot into large julienne slices. Chop the green onions. Set aside.

Put the 3 tb vegetable oil into a wok over medium heat. When the oil is hot, stir-fry the garlic until it begins to brown. Add the soy sauce, tofu & all the vegetables except the green onions. Stir-fry for 10 minutes. Turn the heat off & add the green onions.

Separate the roll wrappers. Place the wrapper with the narrow side facing you. Place a scant ¼ c filling about ⅓ of the way over from the closest edge. Fold the closest edge to you over the filling, fold over the left & right edges & then roll. Seal the end using just a touch of water. Place the finished roll seam side down on a baking sheet until all the rolls have been filled in this way.

Heat the oil for deep frying in a wok until hot. Deep-fry the rolls on each side until golden. Drain & serve hot with cucumber pickle.
