Mini Spring Rolls
One of my favorite Chinese New Year snacks is mini spring roll filled with bits of pork, chicken or shrimp floss.
These mini spring rolls are crispy and so addictive. Once you start eating, you just can’t stop.
Making these mini spring rolls are fun: assembling, filling, rolling and deep-frying.
It’s great to gather family members around the table to make this festive munchie.

Cook’s Tips
This is an easy to make and they are delicious when they are freshly made.
They can be kept in an air-tight container for up to two weeks before Chines New Year.
However, do not keep them for too long as it will lose the crispiness, and the taste will not be as refreshing.

Puzzled
Why does my floss roll lose its crispness the next day? I store the rolls in the usually CNY goodies box with red cover but I didn’t tape it up. Is it something wrong with my recipe? With the container or frying method?
Sau Leng
After wrapping the rolls, if we do not fry immediately, do we store in the fridge or freezer because I saw that you mentioned “freeze them in the fridge till they are cold before deep frying”. Can you clarify? We made the rolls but left it in the fridge for a few weeks before taking it out to deep fry. End result was that it was very chewy in the centre and did not seem cooked. However it was definitely crispy when first deep fried. Any idea what is wrong?
Rasa Malaysia
Yes, freeze them so they have nice shapes after frying. You freezed for too long.
Sharon
Can I use the airfryer instead of frying with oil? Thanks :)

FoodRousong, also called meat wool, meat floss, pork floss, flossy pork, pork sung, or yuk sung, is a dried meat product with a light and fluffy texture similar to coarse cotton, originating from Fujian, China. It also spread to Taiwan.
