Really good, but a lot of work. I could not find spring roll wrappers and had to use egg roll wrappers. I think spring roll wrappers would be better though.

It seemed overwhelming at first because of the long ingredients list, but it was SO worth the effort! I couldn't find spring rolls or glass noodles so I used regular egg roll wraps and bean noodles which came out wonderfully. Next time I will be going to an asian market for the wraps because I want a little less of an "egg roll" flavor. The aromatics smelled and tasted great, I have a magic bullet which was much easier to clean than my food processor lol. I didn't have chile garlic paste so I just used some asian chili sauce I had on hand. Overall I thought the flavor mixtures were excellent and I will be making these again. It seems less overwhelming now that I have done it once lol.

This is the first time that I tried spring rolls. The recipe was really good. I skipped the mustard sauce. Number 1: It required too many ingredients. The recipe already had a lot going on in preparation. Number 2: I like pure hot mustard, i.e. ground mustard and water only. I like it really hot and without vinegar and sugar to interfere with the flavor. I used Chili Garlic Sauce for the chili paste. In my opinion, it makes the recipe! For the aromatics I used only one large clove of garlic, in deference to my husband, who can't take a lot of garlic. The Chili Garlic Sauce was already in the filling. I have a "chop chop" that I used to blend the aromatics in. That way I had less clean-up than if I had used the food processor. I would not put very much oil in next time. There is a lot of oil involved in the frying.

These are out of this world. I was a little put off by the extreme length of the ingredient list, but it was well worth it! I didn't end up making the mustard sauce and just bought a great spring roll dipping sauce to cut some corners, but I wouldn't change a thing about the spring rolls!

I knew this would take a bit of time because of all the ingredients, but it was well worth the effort! I felt like a true chef and my guests were ready to call foodnetwork and sign me up!!
