Thai Style Baked Spring Rolls With Mushrooms And Chicken Recipes

THAI CHICKEN SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup peanut sauce, ginger, garlic, and 1 teaspoon soy sauce in a bowl. Add the chicken and mix until the chicken is coated. Place in refrigerator to marinate for 30 minutes.
• Heat 1 teaspoon peanut oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Cook the snow peas, bean sprouts and green onion in the oil until heated but still crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Mix in the watercress and cilantro. Use a vegetable peeler to have long slices of carrot into the watercress mixture. Drizzle 1 teaspoon soy sauce into the watercress mixture; toss to coat.
• Heat 1 teaspoon of oil to the wok or skillet. Cook the marinated chicken until no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes.
• Fill a large bowl with hot water. Dip wrappers one at a time into the water for about 2 seconds each. As wrappers are removed from the water, fill each with 2 large spoonfuls of the chicken and a small handful of the watercress mixture. Fold in two opposite ends of the wrapper to meet the filling. Then fold the bottom of the wrapper over the top of the filling and roll. Serve with 1/2 cup peanut sauce for dipping.

BAKED SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Prepare the cabbage and carrots and set them aside.
• Fry the meat until just done with the ginger, salt and sesame oil.
• Lift from the pan and put in a large bowl.
• Drain off any excess fat (but don't wash the pan) and saute the shredded cabbage and carrots with a couple tablespoons of water, until just limp and the water is gone.
• Mix with the meat.
• Brush each spring roll wrapper with oil, turn over, and put a little- one twentieth to be precise- of the filling in a tube shape diagonally across one quadrant of the wrapper.
• Fold in the side corners, then roll up to make a neat tube.
• Repeat 19 more times.
• Lay the finished spring rolls on a lightly oiled cookie tray.
• Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes, until golden brown.
• Serve hot with plum sauce.

THAI-STYLE BAKED SPRING ROLLS WITH MUSHROOMS AND CHICKEN

Steps:

• Add a splash of olive oil to a heavy-base fry pan on medium-high heat. Add chicken, salt, mushrooms, carrot, ginger and garlic. Sauté until chicken takes on colour and mushrooms sweat down. Then add sesame oil. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• Lay out single rectangular pieces of phyllo pastry. Brush one half with canola or vegetable oil. Fold over pastry to create a two-layered square piece. Place 2 to 3 tablespoons of mixture into the corner and roll pastry up like a burrito. Paint a dab of oil on remaining corner to seal spring roll.
• Lay spring rolls on a parchment lined baking tray Brush rolls lightly with oil and bake at 400⁰F for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden. Remove and serve with a store-bought sweet chili sauce.
