inch by 2 inches. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. Add carrots, cabbage,
tree ear fungus, onion, bean sprouts, and bamboo shoots. Toss and cook over
high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add soy-cornstarch mixture and tofu, and stir
to cook for another 30 seconds. Remove to a bowl and cool. Quarter
rice-flour wrappers or use whole spring roll wrapper. Place a rounded
tablespoon of filling on each wrapper. Roll wrapper to enclose filling,
tucking in ends as you roll. Brush edge with water and press to seal.
Reserve until all are completed. Pour oil in a wok or deep saucepan to a
depth of 3 inches. Heat to 370 degrees. Add one or two spring rolls at a
time and cook for 2 minutes on the first side. Tur! ! n and cook for 1
