Popiah (Malaysian Fresh Spring Rolls) Recipe

Provided by Rasa Malaysia

Categories     Malaysian Recipes

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup cooking oil
20 fresh popiah wrappers
Fresh lettuce leaves, wash and drained dry
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
8 oz. shrimp (226 g) , shelled, deveined and cut into small pieces
2 lbs. (1 kg) yambean or jicama, grated
2 oz. (56 g) french beans, sliced
4 bean curd, diced into small pieces
Some store-bought fried shallot crisps, optional
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
1/2 teaspoon white pepper powder
1 teaspoon sugar or to taste
1 cup water
1/2 cup sweet sauce, tee cheo or hoisin sauce
1/4 cup chili sauce, sriracha or Lingham Hot Sauce

Steps:

  • Heat up your wok with 1/4 cup oil, shallow fry the bean curd until lightly browned. Dish out and drain on paper towels.
  • In a deep pot, add in the remaining oil until heated. Transfer the garlic into the deep pot and stir fry until aromatic, add in the prawn and stir fry until slightly cooked.
  • Add in the yambean or jicama, french beans, salt, pepper, sugar and water, stir well. Reduce the heat and simmer until the yambean or jicama turns soft, for about 30 minutes. Taste the filling, add more salt and sugar to taste. Dish out the filling and keep aside to cool. The filling might be slightly watery.
  • Lay a piece of the Popiah wrapper on a flat board. Spread a little sweet sauce or hoisin sauce and a little chili sauce on it. Place a lettuce leaf over the sauces. Spoon 3 tablespoons of filling onto the leaf. Top with the fried bean curd and fried shallot crisps. Fold up the two sides of the wrapper and roll up. (You can view the step-by-step pictures of rolling popiah here.) If you wish, you can scoop a tablespoon of the filling juice on top of the Popiah. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect Po Piah skins, use a non-stick pan and make sure the heat is low. If the heat is too high, the skins will cook too quickly and become brittle.
  • When filling the Po Piah skins, don’t overfill them. Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and they may break.
  • To get a nice, tight roll, start by folding the bottom of the skin up over the filling. Then, fold the sides in and roll the skin up tightly from the bottom.
  • If you’re making the Po Piah rolls ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you’re ready to serve them, bring them to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the Po Piah rolls with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include sweet chili sauce, hoisin sauce, and peanut sauce.

Conclusion:

Po Piah are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. They’re easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So, next time you’re looking for something new and exciting to try, give Po Piah a try!
