I had a wonderful opportunity to not only revisit a San Francisco Thursday Night Dinner, but also to celebrate a good friends birthday. Teaming up with Keith, we knocked out an incredible meal for Cara's birthday. Her request was "Asian seafood" and we ran with it. There was a few dishes I had been wanting to try for a while, one of which was Shrimp-Jalepeno Spring rolls.
Taking spring roll wrappers, I placed 2 shrimp (21-25, cleaned & peeled), some sliced jalepenos, cilantro, and diced scallions. Wrapped, sealed and then repeated until I had a pretty large tray of rolls. For a dressing/dipping sauce, I decided to go with mango. I sliced up a beautifully sweet mango, added a handful of cilantro, the juice of a few limes and a touch of Ponzu sauce.
These were then deep fried. They turned out spectacular and were easily the dish of the night.
(Note: For some reason, the picture wont upload... I guess Ill have to make these again soon.)
