    This sound really good. I like egg rolls but I like spring rolls even better. I’ve got to try these. This recipe is a little different from the one I have and I’m just not happy with mine. Of course it could be the cook and not the recipe. Nice share. Thanks.

    See, this is where my food cravings come from. Not bad food, but well-made fresh (but fattening) things like these. I watched carefully through every step. Now I want some, and it’s midnight. Thank you for the recipe. Pretty easy to make!
