Pa Pai (Thai Spring Rolls)
Saturday 19 Apr 2008
Although Chinese in origin, deep-fried spring rolls are popular dish on Thai menus. These crispy and golden look are difficult to resist.
Many pre-made spring rolls are easily found in many frozen section of supermarkets, but a homemade spring rolls are much better because you know its content and the quality of ingredients being place.
Among the Thai recipes that I made, this one was challenging to make because the spring roll wrapper always pop-out every time I place it in the pan until my wife told me her technique of sealing the spring wrapper with egg white.
Well, most of the time it works but still I haven’t perfected it yet.
