Instructions

  1. 1.

    Whisk tamarind paste with 4 tbsp water until smooth (depending on quality, soak first), then knead and strain through a sieve. Mix in 5 tbsp soy sauce, salt and sugar.

    Break broccoli into small florets, peel stems and cut finely. Finely mince garlic. Slice onions into rings, mushrooms into slices. Sauté vegetables in hot peanut oil for about 3 minutes. Season with remaining soy sauce, pepper and sesame oil, then add sesame seeds.

    Place the cooked vegetables in the center of each rice paper sheet, fold both sides over and roll tightly into firm rolls. Heat oil in a large pan and fry the rolls until crisp all around. Serve immediately with dip.
