Spring Rolls

Presented by Widow’s Tavern & Grille

INGREDIENTS

• 1 carrot, shredded
• 1 red bell pepper, julienned
• 1 bunch scallions, sliced
• 1/2 lb. lump crabmeat
• 1/2 lb. shrimp, chopped
• 16 spring roll wrappers

DIRECTIONS

Gently mix all ingredients except spring roll wrappers until blended. Lay wrapper on a clean, dry surface and place a tablespoon of filling in the corner closest to you. Fold the corner over the filling and roll tightly and evenly into a cylinder shape until reaching the widest part of the wrapper. Fold over both sides and continue rolling. Rub a few drops of cornstarch and water slurry along the edges of the top peak to hold the spring roll together. Continue with remaining wrappers, placing them on a pan, seam side down, and covered with plastic wrap or a damp tea towel to keep them from drying out. Just before serving, deep fry the spring rolls at 350°F for 3 to 4 minutes. (These can also be fried in a wok.) Work in batches and place them on a rack to drain. Serve with sweet chili sauce.
