Uses for broken spring roll wrappers/ricepaper?

You all seem to be such proficient chefs. Well here is a place to share some of that cooking knowledge. Or do you have a cooking problem? Ask away. Jams and chutneys go here too.

Uses for broken spring roll wrappers/ricepaper?

Post: # 152288Post Clara »

I've got virtually a whole packet of spring roll wrappers that are too broken and cracked to wrap with - what on earth can I do with them?

I suspect it's a lost cause, but I know if anyone can think of a use for them, it's you guys!!!

If it's still pliable you could put one on top of the other sticking it together with egg white which might catch the cracks in both pieces.

I don't really know what to suggest otherwise except perhaps to break them into chunks, deep fry or perhaps bake them and use them for dipping into a dip or something

If the pieces are big enough you could deep fry, or bake, them to make nacho type things for dips.

Edited - sorry SPS just saw your entry.

OK, if they're small enough you could use them as a savoury crumble topping instead of bread crumbs!

They can be cut into strips for noodles.
