Shrimp Spring Rolls image

I began making these egg rolls in college in my Food Science course, and I have made them countless times since with my own student. For best results, make sure the filling is cool before placing it into wrappers and the oil is hot-the egg rolls should sizzle when put into oil. -Laura Bakker, Omaha, Nebraska

I had a hard time getting the spring rolls to stay rolled up. They kept falling apart.

These spring rolls were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.
