How to Make Spring Rolls With Sweet Asian Chili Dipping Sauce
- **Sweet Chili Sauce:**
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons fish sauce, 1 tablespoon sriracha (or more, to taste), and 1 teaspoon minced garlic.
- Stir until sugar is dissolved. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- **Spring Rolls:**
- In a large bowl, combine 1 pound cooked shrimp (chopped), 1 large egg, beaten, 1/2 pound ground pork, 1/2 cup cooked chestnuts (chopped), 1/2 cup bamboo shoots (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 medium onion (finely chopped), 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and set aside. (Can be made up to 24 hours ahead, refrigerate).
- Lay out one spring roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Place approximately 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the top edge of the wrapper over the filling.
- Fold in the side edges.
- Lightly brush the bottom edge with the beaten egg.
- Tightly roll the spring roll away from you, pressing gently to seal.
- Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or wok to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully add a few spring rolls at a time to the hot oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side, turning occasionally.
- Remove spring rolls with a slotted spoon and place on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately with the chilled sweet chili sauce.
