Re: Wanted: Spring Roll recipe

> Does anyone have a good vegetarian spring roll recipe?

Here's one from my Indonesian recipes page at
http://www.euronet.nl/users/piers/kitchen.html

It uses pre-frozen spring roll pastry, I wouldn't know what to do if 
we didn't have that.

Loempia (spring roll)

These are always handy to have in the house. We make a large quantity
at once and then put them into bags (before frying) each containing
6-8 loempias in the deep freeze. The quantities here should make about
20 loempias.
Ingredients:1 tahoe (tofu) block, 2 medium onions, 2 cloves garlic,
100 gm (4 oz) chopped leeks, 100 gm (4 oz) chopped celery, 500 gm 
(1 pound) cabbage or Chinese leaves, 500 gm (1 pound) bean sprouts,
salt, pepper, vegetable bouillon, 1 packet spring roll pastry, 1 egg,
oil, sweet chilli sauce.

Wash the tahoe block and cut into small pieces. Peel and finely chop
the onions and fry in a little oil in a large saucepan. Add the celery
and leeks, then the pieces of tahoe and fry for 2 minutes. Finely chop
the cabbage or Chinese leaves and add these to the mixture. Fry for 5
minutes on a low heat. Add salt and pepper to taste. Crumble a
bouillon block or the equivalent, add to the mixture and continue to
fry. Wash the bean sprouts, remove the brown roots and add to the
mixture. Fry for another 2 minutes, mixing well. Drain in a colander
until completely dry. Defrost the spring roll pastry. Beat an egg.

Taking one sheet of pastry at a time, put 1 dsp of the mixture into
the middle of the sheet, fold over into an envelope, press
down slightly, use the beaten egg to help the edges stick together 
(HINT: always cover the remaining sheets of spring roll pastry with a
damp cloth to prevent drying out). 

When required, heat sufficient oil in a frying pan to cover the
loempias, then fry them until brown and slightly crispy. Serve with
sweet chilli sauce.
