Vegetable Spring Rolls are one appetizer which is equally liked by all in our family & also a must to order when we go out to eat. Here is a pretty simple recipe for making these delicious Asian appetizer at home, made easier with ready made spring roll pastry readily available at most groceries in the freezer section.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Shred cabbage into thin slices. Finely chop bell peppers, onion, carrot & green onions.
-
Heat about 1 tsp. oil in a frying pan & add all the vegetables. Sauté for a couple of minutes, add salt, soy sauce, chilli sauce & pepper to taste. Do not over cook. Remove from heat & mix in finely chopped cilantro.
- Mix a little cornstarch in little water & keep aside. If using egg white, take it in a small bowl & keep aside.

To make spring rolls, take one spring roll pastry/wrapper and lay it diagonal on a board (see picture). Now take some filling & put it on one corner. From that end, make a tight roll upwards until you reach almost the top half of the pastry (see picture). Now apply some cornstarch paste/egg white on the sides & bring both the sides together like folding into an envelope (see picture). Next, keep rolling until the end. Make sure that the edges are well sealed with cornstarch paste/egg white. Your spring roll is now ready. Make the rest of the spring rolls & keep them on a plate.
- Heat oil in a wok & fry the spring rolls on medium heat a few at a time until crispy & golden brown. Serve with plum sauce.
