Vietnamese Spring Rolls




I've been keeping a pack of Vietnamese Rice Paper for a very long time already and so I decided to finally put it to good use and make Fried Spring Rolls. It came as a surprise that it's so easy to wrap spring rolls using Vietnamese rice paper--- all you need to do is to take one piece of paper and soak it in water with a bit of sugar (the sugar caramelizes the paper during frying) until soft, and use it to wrap any filling. It tastes so much better too compared to the regular lumpia wrapper because it's crispy on the outside with a chewy consistency inside, like a fried dumpling. Trixie had so much fun in the kitchen too!
