2. Trim woody ends of enoki and discard, slice each wood-ear fungus into three or four pieces. Saute mushrooms in the remaining oil in a clean frying pan over medium heat for two minutes.

3. In a small saucepan add 50millilitres of rice wine vinegar and the goji berries, bring to the boil for one minute.  

4. Line up your ingredients: corn puree, corn kernels, tofu, mushrooms, goji berries and crab meat.

Separate a wrapper and place on a clean benchtop or board in front of you, brush three edgesof the wrapper with beaten egg, omitting side closest to you. Three centimetres in from the un-brushed edgespread one heaped teaspoon of corn puree leaving three centimetres free at each end, follow with about a teaspoon each of the other ingredients. Fold the un-brushed edge over the filling and roll tightly, compressing theingredients as you go. Halfway through rolling the wrapper, fold in the left and right edges and keep rolling, brushing the end with more egg before you seal the roll.

5. Empty plum sauce into a bowl and addthe remaining  rice wine vinegar and mix. Garnish with the prawn floss if using.

6. Heat oil in fryer to 180C. Fry spring rolls until light golden and crisp, about three minutes.
