All you need are:
1) 10-12 pieces of spring roll skin (get it at your nearest oriental/asian shop. Its available in different sizes - medium and large. I use large skin in this recipe). Alternatively you can make your own skin using wheat floor. If I have time I will share this recipe.
For the main core inside spring roll you need....
1) 200 grams mince meat (I use beef)
2) Mixed vegetable (of green beans, sweet-corn and carrots. You can use other combination of vegetable. This combo has tiny pieces of veg so its easy to fold the spring roll later)
3) 1 medium onion, cut into small square pieces
4) 3-4 gloves of garlic, sliced it.
5) 3-5 teaspoons of curry powder
6) 1-3 teaspoons of chilli powder (optional)
7) 3 table spoons Maggi's chilli sauce. If you dont have this, substitute with Thai's sweet chilli sauce
8) 3 tablespoons of oyster sauce
9) 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce
10) Salt and sugar (add accordingly)
11) 2-4 table spoons of Cooking oil
12) some water
Techniques:
1) Heat the cooking oil into frying pan
2) Add onion and garlic. Fry it until you smell the fragrance.
3) Mixed curry powder with some water and add in into frying pan. Add also chilli powder. Fry this well at medium heat to get away the powdery taste of curry and chilli powder. Make sure you don't let it burned!!!
4) Add some water and add in mince meat. Let it cook for 5 minutes
5) Pour the mixed vegetable, maggi's chilli sauce, oyster sauce, tomato sauce, some salt and sugar into the curry meat mixture. Try to adjust these sauces, salt and sugar accordingly until you find a prefer and nice taste.
6) Cook it until it form a dried mixture.
7) Let it cool for half an hour. Prepare the skin now. You need some wheat floor added with some water to let skin intact once it has fold with meat. Make the mixture like a glue texture. Do not make it too watery.
8) There is a technique on how to fold the skin to make a spring roll. Put only one piece of skin on top of smooth plate. The skin has a square shape so position it as one of the corner is facing towards you. You have to sit on the chair and the skin and plate is on top of the table.
9) Take 1 table spoons of cooked mince meat and put it on top of the skin near the corner which is the closest towards you. You have to arrange the mixture as a straight line horizontally.
10) Then with your finger take the corner of skin (nearest to you) fold it in front (as it direct in front oppose to you). At this stage the mixture has been cover with the skin. You have to roll it again to make a few layers around it. Dont forget to fold each side of corner (right and left of skin) on top of the mixture as you roll it.
11) Dont forget to put some wheat glue at the end of the skin corner to get the skin intact
12) Once it done, you can start frying it in deep fryer or saucepan. I like until it become crispy so normally my own spring roll is golden in colour (I can say it almost nearly burn...hahaha)
I hope you get it.....If you do not understand this instructions, I will upload some pictures of step-by-step techniques how to make spring roll.
GOOD LUCK!!!!
