Dodgy Spring Rolls!

Dodgy Spring Rolls recipe

We bought these Rice Wafers from the local Chinese Supermarket. They’ve sat in the draw for months. The main problem is that we thought we could use them as replacements for Wanton Wraps which are Wheat based (Not good for Sue) and the basis of your more traditional Spring Roll. WRONG!

As soon as you soak them in warm water they curl up and weld together in an very annoying clump! So as an experiment I whisked a couple of eggs, dunked the Rice paper disks in tepid water and then egg washed them. Yay it worked!!!! They don’t stick together but the parcels remain intact when you fry them.

I stuffed ours with some shredded left over cooked Chicken, Soy Sauce (Too much actually) grated Carrot, Lettuce etc. They were quite convincing to be fair. Served with the left over Welsh Potato Cake and a thrown together Coleslaw it was a bit of a mongrel dinner, but quite good.

Boar Burger Recipe

We had a little Pork mince in the fridge so Sue decided to make a variation on her Monster Burger. We're calling this the Boar Burger! Yes it's a bit elaborate, but it was fun – tasted really goos and fed three of us ( Including Buster the Dog!) For less than the cost of a “Reasonably Content Meal from Burgers R Us”!!!! ( Let's not get into Registered Name wars - but you know the place I mean.....)
