Ingredients

For the Filling:

1 cup shredded cabbage

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup bean sprouts

1/2 cup finely sliced green onions

1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms (optional)

1 cup cooked shredded chicken or shrimp (optional)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Wrappers:

20 spring roll wrappers (available in Asian markets or the international section of most grocery stores)

1 beaten egg (for sealing the rolls)

For Frying:

Vegetable oil (for deep frying)

For the Dipping Sauce:

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic

1 teaspoon finely chopped chili (optional)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and add a bit of vegetable oil.

Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, bean sprouts, green onions, and mushrooms (if using). Stir-fry for

about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

If using meat, add the cooked shredded chicken or shrimp to the skillet.

Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until

everything is well combined and heated through.

Remove from heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.

Step 2: Assemble the Spring Rolls

Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface with one corner pointing towards you (like a diamond

shape).

Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper.

Fold the corner closest to you over the filling.

Fold the left and right corners towards the center, making sure the filling is tightly enclosed.

Roll the wrapper away from you, tucking in the edges as you go, until you have a tight cylinder.

Brush a bit of the beaten egg on the top corner to seal the roll.

Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 3: Fry the Spring Rolls

Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Carefully add a few spring rolls to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot.

Fry the spring rolls until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

Remove the spring rolls from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Repeat with the remaining spring rolls.

Step 4: Prepare the Dipping Sauce

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, garlic, chili (if using), and sesame oil.

Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Serve the spring rolls hot with the dipping sauce on the side.

Tips for Perfect Spring Rolls

 

Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh vegetables and high-quality meat or shrimp will enhance the flavor of

your spring rolls.

Don’t Overfill: Overfilling the wrappers can make them difficult to roll and more likely to burst during

frying.

Keep the Wrappers Moist: Cover the spring roll wrappers with a damp towel to keep them from

drying out while you work.

Maintain Oil Temperature: Keep the oil at a consistent temperature to ensure even frying.
