- 2 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 45-60 small spring roll wrappers
- 1 egg white lightly beaten

Instructions
- Soak the vermicelli in warm water for 5 minutes. Drain and cut into short pieces.
- Heat the oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, green onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until soft.
- Add the shrimp and ground pork and cook until done, breaking up the lumps. Stir in the taro, vermicelli and carrot. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add sweet chili, fish sauce, and soy sauce and cook for 2 minutes or until dry. Allow to cool.
