STEP BY STEP CHICKEN SPRING ROLLS

Who doesnt love Spring Rolls??? There are soo many versions to this versatile starter. Vegetarian, seafood, chicken, pork etc etc… once you master the art of making them you can play around with the ingredients and each time your spring rolls will taste different. Makes an excellent party snack for kids and adults alike and you can freeze them too!! I served them with a spicy green chilli soy sauce which is basically green chillies, grated ginger, light soya sauce and sesame oil…DELICIOUS…..

STEP 1
