Critical Success Points

  • Sauté the lamb until just cooked but still tender.
  • Simmer the filling enough for the honey and figs to infuse.
  • Roll the spring rolls tightly to keep the filling from falling apart during frying.
  • Fry in hot but not smoking oil to achieve a golden color without burning.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful with the oil heat when frying to avoid burns.
  • Handle the knife carefully when cutting the lamb.
