LOIDA’S MISA DE GALLO SPRING ROLLS
Ingredients
1 tsp. garlic, diced
4 tsp. soya sauce
1 tbsp. fresh ginger, diced
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
1 medium to large carrot, grated
2 celery stalks, diced
½ cooking onion, diced
3 green onions, chopped
2 eggs, both whisked separately
1 lb ground pork
1 lb ground beef
1 pkg. spring roll wrappers
1 cup oil for frying
Method
- Chop all vegetables, ginger, and garlic and set aside.
- Combine ground pork and beef in a bowl, mixing with fingers until well-combined. Add all chopped vegetables to the meat mixture as well as garlic, ginger, soya sauce, and salt and pepper. Mix together gently with fingers until combined. Add one whisked egg to the mixture and combine.
- Place your spring roll wrappers on a plate with one of the corners pointing north so that you have a diamond shape in front of you. Measure out a good tablespoon of the meat mixture, place it 2/3 of the way down the wrapper, and work it lightly into a lengthwise shape, about 2” lengthwise. Pull the bottom tip of the wrapper over the meat mixture, and then fold the left and right corners over, one at a time. You then roll this “package” upwards almost to the end. Paint a small amount of the second whisked egg on the top tip of the wrapper then fold over onto the package. Place each roll on a plate until you have finished all of them.
- In a standard sized frying pan, heat vegetable oil on medium-high until it is hot enough to fry the spring rolls. Carefully placing each roll in the oil, not crowding them, let them fry on one side for 2 - 3 minutes. When the rolls are golden brown on this side, turn them and allow to fry for another 2 – 3 minutes. When both sides are an even colour, remove from pan and place on a plate with paper toweling so that excess oil can be absorbed. Allow to cool for approximately 5 minutes, and then serve.
- The rolls can be eaten alone or served with a sauce. Simple ketchup is sufficient, but you can also make one with soya sauce, chopped ginger, sesame oil and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
