Spring Rolls recipe

Chicken Spring Rolls

Chicken spring rolls are classic Chinese dish relished by all ages, in fact one can have 3- 4  at a time with belly getting full but you crave for more of  ’em. The wrappers in which rolls wrapped , are readily available in market but I make at home as I feel ready made wrappers consume loads of oil and exceed loads of oil after fried , that puts my mood off, so have to work a bit more to get that perfect , non oily spring rolls. I make this so often that it hardly takes time for me to make this recipe , but yes if you making it for the first time then it consumes time , but when you see the results you will definitely feel that all the time spent on this recipe is  worth it ….
