Mini Fried Shrimp Spring Rolls

1 . Stage

Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shredded cabbage and carrot mixture and cook for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, shrimp, green onions, and soy sauce; cook for 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in hoisin sauce. Let cool for 5 minutes. Fold in bean sprouts.

2 . Stage

Put 1 spring roll wrapper on a work surface with a point facing you, like a diamond. Put about 1 teaspoon of the shrimp mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling. Roll up tightly to keep the spring roll firm. Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling. Brush the top edge of the wrapper with water. Roll up tightly to the edge; seal. Put finished rolls, seam-side down, on a plate or baking sheet until ready to fry. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

3 . Stage

Fill a large heavy-bottomed pot with 2 inches of peanut oil and heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

4 . Stage

Fry 1/2 of the spring rolls until lightly golden, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Repeat with remaining spring rolls.
