The Scallion and chive flower rolls Recipe is a Numerous variations of a Chinese steamed rolls and buns are frequently eaten as snacks on the street or as part of larger selection of dim sum. the flower rolls are easy to make; however, like much of Asian food, when fresh and made well, they are irresistibly moreish, with a great combination of flavors. Serve them hot.
Makes 6 rolls
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 fresh red chile, seeded and finely chopped
2 onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
8 scallions (green onions), finely chopped
1 bunch of fresh chives, cut into
1⁄2in (1cm) lengths
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 recipe yeast bun dough
salt and freshly ground
black pepper
Method:
1. Heat the vegetable oil in a wok over a medium-high heat, and add the garlic and chile. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the onion, and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until soft. Add the light soy sauce and rice vinegar, and cook for a minute or two until all the liquid has been absorbed. Add the scallion and chives. Season with salt and lots of black pepper. Stir-fry for 1 minute until the chives have wilted. Remove from the heat, and leave to cool.
2. Cut the dough in half. Roll out each half on a floured surface to form a 12in x 4in (30cm x 10cm) rectangle. Brush one half of the dough liberally with half of the sesame oil. Spread half the onion and chive mixture over the dough. Lay the other half of dough on top of the onion mixture. Brush again with the sesame oil, then spread out the remaining onion and chive mixture on top of this.
3. Starting with one of the long sides, roll up the dough like a roulade. Pinch the two ends together to keep the sesame oil from seeping out. Lightly flatten the roll with the heel of your hand, then cut the roll into 13⁄4in (4cm) pieces.
4. Press down into the middle of each piece of dough with a chopstick, parallel to the two cut ends. Pick up each piece of dough by its rounded ends, and pull until they meet underneath the roll. PInch the ends together. This will cause the ends to “flower” when they are steamed.
5. Line a bamboo steamer with a piece of parchment paper. Place the buns on the paper, allowing space for them to rise. Steam for 10–12 minutes until the tops of the buns have “flowered.” Serve immediately while they are still piping hot.

24 wonton wrappers
1⁄2 cup Shaoxing rice wine
freshly ground black pepper
1 recipe Black Vinegar Dipping Sauce

Sauté a quarter of the field and oyster mushrooms for 4 minutes until well colored, then remove to a bowl. Repeat with the rest of the fresh mushrooms, cooking in batches. Set aside.
2. Drain the shiitakes and coarsely chop, reserving the liquid. Heat a little more oil in the same pan over a medium-high heat; sauté half the garlic and ginger for 1 minute. Add the shiitakes and fry for 3 minutes until browned. Strain the mushroom liquid through a sieve into the pan; cook for 3–4 minutes until absorbed. Add the reserved mushrooms.

The Shrimp and chive spring rolls | Chun juan is an Authentic spring rolls eaten as part of dim sum are fine and delicate. They should be no longer than a man’s index finger and about twice as wide. Vary the filling according to what’s available, maybe using a mix of seafood such as shrimp, crab, scallop, or crayfish. They could be seasoned with spices and chile, or be more herby.
Makes 16 rolls
Ingredients:
4oz (120g) rice vermicelli
1⁄2–3⁄4lb (300g) cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined, each cut into 3 pieces
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
juice of 1⁄2 lemon
1⁄2 bunch of fresh chives, finely chopped
4 scallions (green onions), finely chopped
30 fresh mint leaves
handful of fresh cilantro leaves
1 packet rice paper wrappers
1 1⁄2–2 cups vegetable oil for deep-frying
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method:
1. Soak the rice vermicelli in boiling water until softened. Drain off the water, and finely chop the noodles so that they are ½–¾in (1.5cm) long. Combine the shrimp with the noodles, and add the sesame oil, light soy sauce, and lemon juice. Season well with salt and black pepper. Add the chives and scallions. Tear in the mint and
cilantro leaves. Mix through.
2. Rice paper wrappers are very brittle, so they must be handled with care. Half-fill a large bowl with warm water. Lay out a clean damp tea towel on a clean work surface. Dip a rice paper wrapper in the warm water, and allow to soften for a few seconds.
3. Gently shake off any excess liquid, then lay out on the cloth. Create a bit of a production line, and work on six or so wrappers at a time. When you have six wrappers laid out, spoon a tablespoon of mixture onto each one, near the bottom of each wrapper, but away from the edge.
4. Fold in the left edge, then the right edge, toward the center, then tightly roll away from you. The roll should be compact and tight, rather like a short cigar about 3in (8cm) long. It is important to roll tightly—otherwise the roll will fall apart or explode during frying.
5. Set the finished roll on a plate or a tray. Continue until all the mixture has been used. The rolls can be assembled in advance and kept under plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours before frying.
6. Heat enough oil for deep-frying in a wok or a deep-sided frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry the rolls in batches of a few at a time, as they tend to stick to each other at the beginning.
7. Cook for about 4 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels, then serve hot. This recipe is well flavored and juicy; if you want to serve a dipping sauce, the choice is yours.

Chocolate Kumquat Spring Rolls Recipe the Spring rolls are the quintessential Asian appetizer, but I have adapted the concept to dessert. When cooked, these rolls are like cylindrical molten cakes with warm chocolate oozing out of an impossibly thin and crisp “pastry” shell. The kumquats not only cut through the richness with their distinct citrus tartness, but also are a symbol of good fortune, as kum is a homonym for “gold” in Chinese.
Makes 3 dozen spring rolls, about 10 servings
Ingredients:
5 kumquats, cut into 1⁄4-inch slices and seeded, juices reserved
1⁄2 cup plus 1 tablespoon (41⁄2 ounces/127 grams) heavy whipping cream
1⁄8 teaspoon salt
81⁄4 ounces (233 grams) bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened Thirty-six 5-inch square spring roll wrappers
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Canola, vegetable, or other neutral oil for deep-frying
Method:
1. Put the kumquat slices and their juices into a small saucepan, add the cream and salt, and warm over medium heat just until bubbles form around the edges of the pan. Remove from the heat.
2. Put the chocolate into the bowl of a food processor and pour the hot kumquat cream over it. Let sit for 2 minutes, then process until the mixture becomes smooth and shiny. Add the egg yolk, Grand Marnier, and butter and process to combine.
3. Line an 81⁄2 × 41⁄2-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap. Pour the chocolate mixture into the pan and transfer to the freezer. Freeze, uncovered, until completely hard.
4. Unmold the chocolate bar and peel off the plastic wrap. Cut the bar lengthwise in half, then cut each half crosswise into 1⁄2-inch slices. You should have 36 chocolate bars.
5. Lightly brush the entire surface of a spring roll wrapper with a bit of the beaten egg. Turn the wrapper so that you see a diamond, and lay a chocolate bar across the end closest to you so that the ends of the bar meet the edges of the wrapper to form a triangle.
6. Take the corner of the wrapper closest to you and wrap it around the chocolate, then roll the chocolate away from you one full rotation. Tightly fold the sides in toward the center, then continue to roll up to the end of the wrapper, making sure the end is tightly sealed. Set on a baking sheet.
7. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and chocolate. Freeze the spring rolls for at least 10
minutes or up to 2 days; take them out only when you are ready to fry them.
8. Fill a saucepan with oil to a depth of 2 inches and heat to 350°F. When the oil is ready (a tiny pinch of flour will sizzle), add a few spring rolls, taking care to not crowd the pan, and cook, turning occasionally and adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain 350°F, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and cook the remaining rolls. Serve warm.
Notes and Tips:
Make sure you use thin spring roll wrappers, which can be found in Asian markets, not egg roll wrappers.
