Hi
Just timely for CNY! I have been searching for this recipe. The ready made ones are rather expensive RM35/kg ex-wholesale.
Thanks
Aunty,
Can we roll up the roll first and keep in the fridge for a few days before frying?
delia
i fried them as soon as i finished rolling all of them. i think you could keep them in the fridge but i hope the egg will not make the nori soft.
Hi Lily,
I love these crisps! Just wondering if I can bake them instead deep frying?

i am sure you can bake them, you would have to spray or mist the surface of the spring roll skin with oil so that it will become crisp.
I was just introduced to this by a friend and it is very tempting to consume a whole container of this snack within 15 mins! They are expensive. I am glad that I found the recipe here, Lily! Thanks and wishing you ahead a Happy New Year of the Tiger!
