Pork Patty Spring Rolls

Tonight's dinner was a "Build-your-own" affair.

Here's the buffet line-up, if you will: spring roll wrappers, red leaf lettuce, carrots, mint, and cilantro. The lychees are in the photo because they're juicy and sweet right now as well as extra large for only $2.99 in Chinatown, but they don't go into spring rolls.


This is the pork patty. About half of one gets crumbled into each spring roll. I really don't have a recipe for this. I take a pound of ground pork and add chopped green onions, a handful of chopped shitake mushrooms, about a tablespoon of sugar, and soy sauce and fish sauce to taste. Then I fry them up and use them for spring rolls. It doesn't need to be pretty or exact, just not too salty.

This meal is good for a leisurely Friday dinner in front of the TV. I keep a shallow plate of hot water on hand because the spring roll wrappers need to be dipped before eating, and we just take our time eating as many as we can.
