Ingredients
- 10 spring roll wrappers
- 1 cup cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (plus more for frying)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Dipping sauce of your choice (e.g., sweet chili sauce or soy sauce)
How to Make Crispy Vegetable Spring Rolls
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, julienned carrots, chopped green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, and vegetable oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all the vegetables are coated.
- Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture near the corner closest to you.
- Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly away from you. Seal the edge with a little water to ensure it stays closed. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat a deep pan or fryer with enough oil to submerge the rolls over medium heat. Once the oil is hot (about 350°F), carefully add the spring rolls in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove the rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.
- Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches to maintain the oil temperature.
- Feel free to experiment with different vegetables or add protein like tofu or shrimp for a heartier option.
Easy Variations
- Swap cabbage for spinach or kale for a different flavor.
- Add bell peppers or mushrooms for extra depth.
- Mix in cooked vermicelli noodles for a more filling spring roll.
What to Serve With It
- A fresh cucumber salad with sesame dressing.
- Thai peanut sauce for a richer dipping option.
- A side of edamame for a light, protein-packed snack.
- Crispy tofu bites for a delightful combination.
