PREPARATION

1. Cut the vegetables into julienne and reserve. In a wok, or frying pan, add 3 tablespoons of frying oil. When it is hot add the cabbage and onion. Stir constantly until the vegetables are al dente and crispy.

2. Add a spoonful of soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil. We remove a few seconds and remove.

3. In the same wok we add a couple of tablespoons of oil for frying again. When it is hot, add the already chopped carrot and repeat the operation. Cook it constantly stirring until it is al dente, add a spoonful of soy and a drizzle of sesame oil, stir and remove. We follow the same process with the julienne pepper and reserve.

4. We incorporate the minced meat. You can replace it with pork or chicken without problem, even completely eliminate it and form the rolls only with vegetables.

5. We let the meat cook over high heat. Add the bean sprouts, two tablespoons of soy sauce and a drizzle of sesame oil and continue cooking for 1 or 2 minutes. Add the rest of the vegetables that we have reserved and let the flavors mix for 2 minutes. We remove from the fire.

6. We spread a sheet of rice on a flat surface and place a portion of the filling trying to reduce the amount of sauce as much as possible. If the mixture is too wet, the thin blade may break.

7. We roll up in an enveloping motion and fry in plenty of oil. It will be ready in just 1 or 2 minutes. We remove to a tray with absorbent paper and serve hot.

This preparation lasts 45 minutes or less and yields 8 servings. Recipe credits: pacifier.

1 tablespoonful of cornstarch or chuño

½ teaspoon white vinegar

½ cup of sugar

pinch of salt

2 cups of water

3. Separately, dissolve the cornstarch or chuño in a little cold water and then incorporate it into the preparation. Stir and let it cook until it thickens.
