Beef Packets
Ingredients:
5 ounces minced or ground beef
4 strips yellow chives, minced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 Tablespoons pickled cabbage
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
10 spring roll skins
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Preparation:
1. Mix beef, chives, garlic, pickled cabbage, egg yolk, soy sauce, sugar, and wine, but do not stir more than necessary to mix these ingredients together. Divide this mixture into ten parts.
2. Gently spread one part of the meat mixture down the center of the spring roll skin, fold the edges in, and roll the spring roll dough one end to the other, flattening this roll into a one-inch wide package. Repeat until all ten packets are made.
3. Heat wok or fry pan, add vegetable and sesame oils and fry half the packets on one side until lightly browned, then turn them over and fry the other side. When the second side is lightly browned, add two tablespoons water, cover the pan, reduce the heat slightly and steam for fifteen minutes. Then remove them to a flat plate or platter, and serve.
