Ingredients

• 1 cup firm tofu, crumbled
• 1 cup green cabbage, shredded
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 2 green onions, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 package spring roll wrappers (about 12-14 wrappers)
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• Salt and pepper, to taste

How to Make Crispy Vegetable Spring Rolls

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add a splash of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
2. Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet, stirring occasionally for about 3-4 minutes until lightly browned.
3. Stir in the shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, and chopped green onions. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Season with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
4. On a clean surface, lay one spring roll wrapper flat. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable-tofu mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up. Seal the edge with a little water.
5. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
6. In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the spring rolls in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
7. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried spring rolls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
8. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the spring rolls to achieve that crispy texture.
• Don’t overcrowd the pan; fry in batches to ensure even cooking.
• If you have leftover filling, it makes a great salad topping!

Easy Variations

• Swap the tofu for tempeh or a meat substitute for a different protein source.
• Add bell peppers, mushrooms, or bean sprouts for extra crunch and flavor.
• Use rice paper wrappers for a gluten-free option.

What to Serve With It

• Sweet chili sauce for a spicy kick.
• Soy sauce or tamari for a classic dip.
• A side of fresh cucumber salad for a refreshing contrast.
• Pickled vegetables for an extra zing.
