Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 spring roll sheets: Crispy outer shell
  • 1 cup cabbage, shredded: Adds softness and absorbs seasoning
  • 1/2 cup carrots, julienned: Provides sweetness and crunch
  • 1/2 cup capsicum (bell pepper), julienned: Adds flavor and color
  • 1/4 cup green beans, finely sliced: Gives a tender bite and earthiness
  • 2 spring onions, finely chopped: Enhances aroma and freshness
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce: Adds umami and saltiness
  • 1 tsp vinegar: Balances flavors with tanginess
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper: Mild heat and depth
  • Salt to taste: Essential for flavor balance
  • 1 tbsp oil (for stir-frying): Helps cook vegetables evenly
  • Oil for deep frying: Gives golden, crispy texture
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water (slurry): Seals the rolls


Instructions

  1. Prepare all vegetables by finely shredding and slicing them.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan, add white parts of spring onion, sauté for 1 minute.
  3. Add cabbage, carrots, capsicum, and green beans. Stir-fry on high heat for 2–3 minutes until slightly tender but crisp.
  4. Add soy sauce, vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and remove from heat. Let the filling cool completely.
  5. Place a spring roll sheet on a flat surface. Add about 2 tablespoons of filling near the corner.
  6. Fold the corner over the filling, then fold the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with the cornstarch slurry.
  7. Repeat with remaining sheets and filling.
  8. Heat oil in a deep pan. Fry rolls on medium-high heat until golden brown and crisp.
  9. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Cool the filling completely to avoid soggy wrappers.
  • Seal edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking during frying.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying; cook in batches.
  • Can be frozen before frying. Fry directly from frozen without thawing.
