Burmese Rolls
Country: BurmaCourse: Appetizers
Makes: 8 to 12 servings
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp oil
- 2 tbsp finely chopped onion
- 8 oz ground lamb
- 1 tsp ginger garlic paste
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp hot madras curry powder
- 2 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
- 2 green chiles, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 cup bean sprouts (I used a lot less)
- 1 dozen egg roll wrappers
Directions:
- Brown the onions in the oil. Now add the ginger-garlic paste and the ground lamb.
- Add the curry powder, pepper and salt to taste. Continue to cook over a medium flame until the meat is cooked through (about 10 minutes).
- Add the cilantro, chili peppers and vinegar. Stir until the peppers begin to soften up a little. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Lay out one egg roll wrapper so that it is oriented as a diamond shape. Put a line of about 1 tsp of filling on the wrapper and top that with a few bean sprouts.
- Roll the bottom point of the diamond over the filling, then fold over the two middle points of the diamond.
- Roll up completely, keeping the seam side down. Continue until you've run out of filling.
- Deep fry in three inches of oil, or pan fry. To pan fry, just add about a half inch of oil to your frying pan and keep turning until golden brown on all sides.
- Serve hot with sour dipping sauce.
