Fresh Mango Lobster Spring Rolls Recipes

FRESH MANGO-LOBSTER SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine fish sauce, wine or sherry, 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger, and cilantro leaves in a medium bowl. Add lobster; toss to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large cooking pan over medium-high heat and swirl to coat pan. Add green tea and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add remaining ginger and saute another 30 seconds. Add lobster mixture; stir and toss until it heats through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Let cool, then mix in mango.
• Fill a medium bowl with warm water. Dip one of the wrappers in the water for 15 seconds, or until softened. Carefully transfer it to a dry work surface.
• Arrange 2 to 3 tablespoons of the filling in an even horizontal mound just below the center of the wrapper. Roll up the rice paper to form a tight cylinder, folding in the sides about halfway. Assemble the remaining spring rolls the same way.
• Cover finished rolls with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying. Serve fresh rolls whole or cut in half, with Sweet-and-Sour Chili Sauce.

LOBSTER AND MANGO SUMMER ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the lime, fish sauce and sugar well. Break up the lime segments. Toss with sprouts and basil. Check for seasoning. Lay out 1 rice paper wrapper and place a small mound of salad at the bottom. Top with lobster and mango. Roll bottom toward the middle. Fold in both sides and continue rolling. Finish roll and let rest. Individually wrap each roll with plastic wrap. Will hold for 2 hours in the refrigerator. Slice on the bias and serve on top of extra salad.

SWEET MANGO SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Place a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with the corner pointed toward you. Lightly brush the center of the wrapper with maple syrup. Lay a slice of mango across the wrapper from corner to corner. Fold in the side corners of the wrapper toward the middle, fold up the bottom corner and then roll up. Seal the top of the wrapper by brushing some of the cornstarch mixture along the edges of the wrapper to help seal. Put onto a plate seam-side down while preparing the remaining spring rolls.
• Heat a wok or small skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the rolls a few at a time and shallow fry, turning them as they become golden brown; do not fry too many at one time and overcrowd the wok. Remove from the wok and drain on paper towels. Repeat with all of the rolls.
• Brush the fried rolls with honey and roll in toasted coconut. Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of maple syrup.
