Method

  • Step 1

    In a bowl, combine the prawns, spinach, cornflour, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper. Mix until well combined.

  • Step 2

    Dip each spring roll wrapper into cool water, shake off the excess and lay flat on a board. Spoon 1 tbsp of the prawn mix down one side of the wrapper, then fold both sides over the filling and roll them up. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers. Makes 10-12.

  • Step 3

    In a large, heavy-bottomed pan, heat 1-2cm oil to 180°C (or until a cube of bread dropped in sizzles and rises to the surface). Gently fry the rolls in batches for 4-5 mins, turning once, until crisp and golden all over. Serve with extra light soy sauce, spiked with the sliced chilli, for dipping, if liked.
