Ingredients

8 oz. ground pork
2 oz. butternut squash cubes
2 oz. red onion
1-2 green onions
4 oz. rice noodles cooked and chopped
4 T. Fredericksburg Farms Jalapeacheno Jelly & Glaze
1 T. Fish Sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
16 sheets of rice paper

Instructions

Rice paper is used in making traditional Vietnamese egg rolls. Egg roll wrappers may also be used - follow package instructions.

Pulse vegetables together to a fine dice in a food processor. In a medium mixing bowl, combine vegetables with pork, Jalapeacheno Jelly & Glaze, fish sauce, noodles and seasoning. Refrigerator at least one hour.

Dip rice paper sheet into water and lay on a plate. Fold over an inch of one edge of the sheet and place 2 tablespoons of the filling along the fold. Then fold each side to the middle and tightly roll to shape.

Allow rolls to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before frying in canola oil until golden brown.
