One Thanksgiving, the pastry chef Diane Yang's parents, Hmong refugees from Laos, found that they had filling left over from making egg rolls, and her mother came up with the idea of using it to stuff the turkey. It's lighter than traditional bread stuffing, and yields relatively small servings, but it's a delicious addition to the feast. It is not intended to be baked alongside the turkey. If you'd like, double this recipe and use the remainder to fill egg rolls. Purchase egg roll wrappers (often found in the freezer section at the market), thaw them, and roll them with stuffing. Deep fry in vegetable oil until golden brown, and serve hot.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, soak bean thread noodles in hot water for 8 minutes. Drain well. Using clean kitchen shears, cut noodles in half.
- Place noodles in a large bowl, along with all remaining ingredients. Mix well. (Hands work best to separate the noodles.) Use mixture to stuff both the body cavity and the front cavity of a seasoned turkey, then roast as directed.

[email protected]The egg rolls were delicious, but they were a bit too oily for my liking. I would recommend draining them on paper towels before serving.

[email protected]These egg rolls were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
