Summer/spring rolls

As far as I can gather a summer roll is a spring roll that's not been fried. Anyway, call them what you will.
Today I was standing in front of a food cupboard wondering what I could eat, like you do. I saw peeking out at me a packet of spring roll 'skins', I quickly whipped round and opened the fridge and saw there was a bit of stuff I might use to put in them.
I'm sure this isn't a classic way to do them, but it was the way I did them. I'm sure they'd go well with cooked chicken or prawns or something, but I didn't have any.

So, I gathered together some stuff - carrot, lettuce, spring onion, cucumber, red and yellow pepper (capsicum?), cashew nuts and some bean sprouts.





The salted cashew nuts I wrapped in a tea towel and smashed a bit with a rolling pin -







I chopped everything up into small bits, grated the carrot in as well and then added an omelette sliced up I'd quickly made, also putting in the nuts -





I added some salt and pepper to taste and mixed it all up -





Time to get out the skins or whatever they are called –





Then what I did is I put them one at a time into hot water and left them for 10 to 15 seconds to soften them up. If the water is cold it doesn’t seem to work. Then I placed them on a wet tea towel and dabbed them to get the excess water off –





Then I put a spoonful or two of the mixture near the bottom –





Folded the sides in –





And then rolled it up fairly tight. The skin stay a bit sticky so it all comes together quite well. They are a bit fragile though, so I suspect a baboon or gorilla might have a problem making them –





Next one on the go –





Hopefully you then, like I did, end up with a plate full –





However, they taste a lot better with a bit of a sauce to dip them in.
Scouring through the cupboards I found and used the following in various proportions. Soy sauce, vinegar, oyster sauce, Worcester sauce and Tabasco sauce. If I’ve got them all I might as well use them to try. These are only what I can get here, I’m sure there is better quality stuff available but it’ll do for me. After mixing them together it was a bit strong so I added just a bit of water to tone it down slightly –





The finished product, which was devoured in about a twentieth of the time it took me to make them –
