How To Make strawberry-lychee spring rolls
-
Step 1Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Step 2Toss 1 tablespoon of the sugar and the cornstarch with the lychees and strawberries in a large bowl until combined.
-
Step 3Mix together the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl.
-
Step 4Lay a spring roll wrapper on a work surface with a corner pointing toward you and brush the surface lightly with melted butter.
-
Step 5Put 1 heaping tablespoon of the lychee mixture into the center of the wrapper.
-
Step 6Bring the two side corners together so they meet over the filling.
-
Step 7Bring the bottom corner up over the filling and roll the wrapper tightly around the fruit.
-
Step 8Set the spring roll on the baking sheet with the exposed corner down; continue rolling with the remaining fruit and wrappers.
-
Step 9Brush butter all over the surface of the rolls and sprinkle each with a little of the cinnamon sugar.
-
Step 10Bake until light golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes.
-
Step 11Do not overbake - the fruit will begin to break down as it cooks and can ooze out of the wrappers.
-
Step 12Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving with a scoop of ice cream alongside.
