Mini Cocktail Rolls

There is this cocktail roll that looks like mini spring roll with sambal shrimp filling sold in the supermarkets. I decide to make some little cute mini rolls using wonton wrapper instead of the spring roll pastry skin with tofu or banana filling. If you prefer a spicy version, spread a little bit of sambal chilli on the wonton wrapper before placing the tofu. Or you can make different filling rolls and mix them up. Let there be some elements of mystery, suspense and fun in guessing what are you going to have when you pick one – salty, sweet or spicy!
Preparation: 10 mins, Cooking time: 10 mins

Ingredients (makes 20)
° 20 pieces wonton wrappers
° 1 small firm tofu/beancurd, cut into 20 small rectangles and pan-fried
or
° 2 small bananas, peeled and cut into 20 small rectangles
° vegetable oil, for deep-frying

Method
1. Place a piece of spring roll wrapper on a chopping board or plate. Place a piece of tofu or banana on it and roll up. Repeat for the rest.
2. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or wok over high heat or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil brown in few seconds. Drop the mini roll into the hot oil and fry in batches until lightly golden brown.
3. Remove the mini roll with a slotted spoon. Drain well on kitchen paper.
4. Arrange on a serving plate and serve immediately
