One of the easy and simple deep fried snack recipes is prepared with leftover bread slices and spring roll stuffing.
Asian spring roll recipes are one of the sought snacks, but the spring roll sheets can be tricky to prepare.
To mitigate this issue, the same sheets can be replaced with bread slices which would produce the same taste and crispiness for a snack.
Firstly, the stuffing for this recipe has to be less moist or has to be on the dry side.
This is because of the bread slices used in this recipe.
Wet stuffing may easily damage the bread, the stuffing may ooze out while deep frying.
Secondly, the veggies used for stuffing have to be thinly sliced and chopped.
It should not affect shaping the rolls and has to be easily rolled.
You may also use plain flour or wheat bread too. Avoid using multigrain bread as it may not be easy to shape.
