Joe Carre’s Spring Rolls
The BEST spring rolls ever! Don’t expect actual measurements, this is an eyeball type dish. Ask the expert for details! And don’t let the women eat them all.


Filling
- Ground pork, ground chicken, ground veal, any combo
- Lots of minced garlic
- Shredded carrot
- Shredded cabbage
- Bean thread noodles (rehydrated)
- Oyster sauce
- 1-2 eggs (to bind mix)
Wrapping
- Spring roll wrappers, defrosted (8” squares)
- 1-2 eggs, beaten (to seal wrappers)
- Neutral vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Soak noodles according to package directions.
- Mix raw ground meat, noodles, shredded veggies, garlic, oyster sauce, eggs, and any seasonings.
- Cover the spring roll wrapper with a damp towel to keep them from drying out.
- Make some “glue” with a beaten egg.
- Place the wrapper like a diamond in front of you. Add 2 tbsp filling to the bottom third. Fold the bottom up, then the sides in. Roll the wrap up. Seal with the egg mixture. Ask Uncle Joe if you got it right.
- Fry in oil for 7 minutes.
- Serve with a sweet chili dipping sauce.
