Sri Lankan Tuna Pan Rolls
Karen ChanIngredients:
Serves: 8 pieces
- 8 sheets spring roll wrappers (available in the frozen section of supermarkets or Asian grocer)
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Oil for shallow frying
Filling
- 185g Safcol Tuna in Springwater, drained
- 2 hard-boiled eggs – cut to cubes
- 1 medium potato, boiled, peeled and cubed
- 1 small green chili, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp minced ginger
- 2 tbs of your favourite curry powder, mixed with 4 tbs water to form a paste
- 1tbs oil
- Handful of chopped fresh coriander
- Salt to taste
Method:
- In a hot pan, add oil and then the onions, garlic and ginger and fry until golden brown.
- Add curry powder paste and fry for another minute, before adding tuna, eggs, potatoes, green chilies and coriander. Stir to coat well. Season with salt. Set aside to cool completely and divide to 8 portions.
- Lay out a spring roll wrapper, so that 1 corner is facing you, and the opposite corner faces away from you.
- Spoon a portion of the filling onto the centre of the wrapper. Shape the filling into a thin, horizontal 10 cm log.
- Lift the bottom corner of the wrapper over to meet the opposite corner. Bring both side corners to the centre. Roll the bottom (where the filling sits) towards the top. Brush the top corner with beaten egg and then roll to seal. Set aside and proceed with the remaining filling and wrappers.
- Heat a skillet with 2 cm deep oil on low to medium heat.
- Dip each roll in beaten egg and then coat with breadcrumbs. Repeat with a second coat of egg and another coat of breadcrumbs. Gently place into the hot oil and fry on all sides until golden brown.
- Serve as a snack or a light lunch.
