SPICY SPRING ROLL

Steps:

• In a very hot wok briefly saute the ginger, garlic, green onion, and chili paste in the oil. Add the bean sprouts, carrots, Savoy cabbage, red pepper, and mushrooms and cook at high heat until vegetables begin to soften. Add the mirin, hoisin sauce and soy sauce. Remove from heat and let rest in a bowl at room temperature. Place the spring roll wrappers under a damp cloth to keep them moist. Place wrapper one at a time on a hard surface with one corner pointing towards you. Spoon cooled ingredients into the center. Add a tablespoon of grated cucumber and a sprinkle of cilantro. Fold the side corners into the center. Fold the bottom into the center, making sure the 3 corners are touching each other. To finish, roll the wrapper away from you and up over the final corner. Store rolls under a damp cloth until ready to fry. Heat enough oil to cover the rolls, and fry seam side down until golden brown. Drain on paper towel and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

SPICY CRAB SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Shred crabmeat using 2 forks or in a food processor.
• Mix crabmeat, mayonnaise, and sriracha sauce together in a small bowl.
• Fill a shallow bowl with hot water to a depth of 2 inches. Dip 1 rice paper wrapper in the water for a few seconds to soften; set on a wooden cutting board or a clean, moist dish towel. Layer 1/4 of the cucumber, carrot, avocado, crabmeat mixture, and green onion in the bottom third of the rice paper.
• Pull bottom of the rice paper over the filling, using your fingers to prevent it from spilling out the sides. Fold opposing edges of the rice paper to overlap the filling; roll up tightly towards the top. Place roll seam-side down on a plate. Repeat with remaining rice papers and cucumber, carrot, avocado, crabmeat mixture, and green onion.
