🧾 Ingredients (Serves 3–4)

Filling:

• 200 g shrimp (peeled, deveined, finely chopped)
• 100 g mozzarella cheese (shredded or cut into small sticks)
• 2 tbsp cream cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tbsp green onions (chopped)
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp paprika or chili flakes (optional)

Wrappers:

• 10–12 spring roll wrappers

For Sealing:

• 1 egg (beaten) or flour + water paste

For Frying:

• Oil (for deep frying)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the filling

In a bowl, combine chopped shrimp, garlic, soy sauce, pepper, and green onions.
Mix well until slightly sticky.
Fold in mozzarella and cream cheese.

2. Wrap the rolls

Place a wrapper on a flat surface (diamond shape).
Add 2 tablespoons of filling near the bottom corner.
Roll tightly halfway, fold in the sides, then continue rolling.
Seal the edge with egg wash or flour paste.

3. Heat the oil

Heat oil to about 170–180°C (340–350°F).
Make sure oil is hot enough for crispiness but not too hot to burn.

4. Fry the rolls

Fry in batches for 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Turn occasionally for even cooking.
Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. Serve

Garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve hot with dipping sauce (sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or spicy mayo).

💡 Tips for Best Results

• Chop shrimp finely so the filling binds well.
• Do not overfill — it may burst while frying.
• Keep wrappers covered to prevent drying out.
• Double fry (optional): fry once, rest, then fry again for extra crispiness.

⚡ Energy-Saving Tips

• Fry in small batches to maintain oil temperature.
• Use a deep pan to reduce oil usage.
• Prepare all rolls before heating oil to avoid wasted heat time.
