This recipe is far from authentic, but it is packed with Thai flavours and is party perfect. When I develop recipes for large crowds, I’m always thinking about flavor, impact and stretching the budget. A chicken spring roll is soooo boring but offer a Thai Red Curry Chicken Spring roll and you have them begging for more. Using bean noodles or glass noodles in this recipe really stretches the filling to make this appetizer economical.

The stars are the authentic Thai flavours  – Lemongrass, Galangal, red Chillies, Garlic. The first thing we need in this recipe is a great red curry paste, you can either use store bought paste or try my incredibly fragrant and delicious blend. Click here This red curry paste is going to enhance the filling to give it an authentic Thai flavour.

One word of warning – the moisture from the filling can seep into the wrappers making them soggy and cause them to break. Do not leave this on your counter top for too long. Either fry or freeze them immediately to avoid a disaster. During the making of this video/post with all the behind the scene delays, my spring rolls were a tad soggy. Frying these caused them to burst, spilling the contents into the oil. To save the spring rolls I already rolled, I simply double wrapped them and they were perfect!

Make these today, I guarantee that you will love them!

  7. Throw in some chopped peanuts, but this is totally optional
