Original Recipe Yield 8 spring rolls
 

Ingredients

  • 1 quart oil for frying
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup shredded cucumber
  • 2 tablespoons diced onion
  • 1/4 cup diced green onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped shiitake mushrooms
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 ounces boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and diced
  • 1 ounce cooked crabmeat, diced
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
  • 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 8 spring roll wrappers

Directions

  1. Heat 1 quart oil in a wok over medium high heat.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cabbage, carrots, cucumber, onion, green onion, shiitake mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, salt and pepper. Slowly cook and stir until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
  3. Stir chicken, crabmeat and Chinese five-spice powder into the cabbage mixture. Sprinkle avocado with lemon juice, then stir it into the mixture. Remove from heat.
  4. Place approximately 1 teaspoon of the cabbage and chicken mixture in the center of spring roll wrappers. Fold wrappers, and seal the edges with moistened fingers.
