-------- ------------ --------------------------------

***DIPPING SAUCE***

1/2 cup orange or apricot preserves -- or marmalade

2 tablespoons orange juice

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

OR white wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1 teaspoon soy sauce or tamari

1 dash cayenne pepper

***

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 teaspoon dark sesame oil

1 large onion -- quartered

and thinly sliced

1/2 pound mung bean sprouts

1 cup small white mushrooms -- diced

1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari -- to taste, up to 2

freshly ground pepper -- to taste

1 dozen egg roll wrappers

 

Makes 1 dozen, or 6 servings

 

These spring rolls and the Cabbage Spring Rolls (see separate recipe),

along with the sweet dipping sauce, make a festive opening for an Oriental

meal. Vegetarians in particular will appreciate them, since the spring

rolls or egg rolls served in restaurants are seldom available without meat

or seafood inside. These are also a lot less oily than the deep-fried version!

 

Combine all the ingredients for the dipping sauce in a small mixing bowl

and stir until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a small serving bowl and

set aside.

 

Heat the oils in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over moderate

heat until lightly browned. Add the sprouts and mushrooms. Sauté,

covered, lifting the lid to stir occasionally, until the sprouts are wilted

but not overdone. Season to taste with soy sauce and pepper. Remove from

the heat.

 

Divide the mixture among 12 egg roll wrappers, folding in the sides and

rolling up the remaining wrapper.

 

Spray the bottom of a large, nonstick skillet with cooking oil spray. Cook

the spring rolls over moderately high heat on both sides until golden brown

and crisp. Serve at once.
