Shrimp Spring Rolls with Spicy Apricot Mustard Dip image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings or 8 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup chopped cooked shrimp
2 cups broccoli slaw
2 tablespoons prepared sesame-ginger marinade
1 (4.7-ounce) package spring roll wrappers
Canola or vegetable oil, for deep frying
1 tablespoon sesame-ginger marinade
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • For the dip: In a small bowl, stir together the marinade, preserves, mustard and hot sauce.
  • For the spring rolls: In a bowl, mix together the shrimp, slaw and marinade. Place a spring roll wrapper on your work surface with 1 of the corners facing you so it looks like a diamond. (Keep the spring roll wrappers covered with a damp towel so they don't dry out). Place 2 tablespoons filling on the lower third of the wrapper. Spread the filling out in a line from side to side. Roll the bottom corner up over the filling, and then fold in the sides. Moisten the top corner with some water, using your finger or a brush, and roll the filling over it so it sticks to itself and forms a seal. Place seam-side down on a plate and keep covered with a damp towel while you make the remaining rolls.
  • When you are ready to cook, fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to come up about 3 inches from the bottom. Place over medium-high heat and bring to 360 degrees F. Add the spring rolls, a few at a time, and cook until they are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and keep warm while you fry the rest. Serve with the spicy apricot mustard dip.

Tips:

  • Prep work: Ensure all ingredients are measured and prepped before cooking. Devein and clean the shrimp, and set aside the sesame seeds for later. If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  • Shrimp quality: Use fresh, large shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If frozen shrimp is used, thaw it properly before cooking.
  • Seasoning: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings to your preference. You can add more garlic, ginger, or chili flakes if you like a spicier sauce. For the dipping sauce, you can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a tangy kick.
  • Frying: Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the shrimp sticks. Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan with high sides filled with at least 2 inches of oil. To check the oil temperature, insert a wooden spoon or chopstick into the oil; if bubbles form around it, the oil is ready.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Fry the shrimp sticks in batches to prevent the oil temperature from dropping too much. This will ensure they cook evenly and stay crispy.
  • Serve immediately: Shrimp and sesame sticks are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the fryer. Serve them with the apricot dipping sauce and garnish with sesame seeds for an extra touch of flavor.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and sesame sticks with apricot dipping sauce are a delightful appetizer or snack that combines the flavors of sweet, savory, and tangy. By following these tips, you can easily prepare this dish at home and impress your friends and family with your culinary skills. Enjoy!
