Fry the Spring Rolls
Serve
For a lower-fat option, brush the assembled spring rolls with a little oil and bake at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp. You can also use an air fryer.
Add shredded cooked chicken, minced pork, crumbled paneer, or scrambled tofu to the vegetable filling for a more substantial roll.
Omit the noodles and increase the quantity of vegetables for a lighter, crunchier filling.
While traditional spring roll wrappers are best, you can experiment with rice paper wrappers for a fresh (un-fried) Vietnamese-style spring roll, or even samosa sheets for a different texture.
Packed with cabbage, carrots, and capsicum, these spring rolls provide a good dose of vitamins like Vitamin C and K, as well as dietary fiber which aids in digestion.
The carbohydrates from the wrappers and noodles offer a quick source of energy, making this a satisfying and energizing snack.
One serving, which consists of two spring rolls, contains approximately 330-360 calories. The exact number can vary based on the amount of oil absorbed during frying and the specific ingredients used.
While they contain a good amount of vegetables, traditional spring rolls are deep-fried, which adds significant fat and calories. They are best enjoyed in moderation as a treat. For a healthier version, consider baking or air-frying them.
Yes, you can! To bake, preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly brush the assembled rolls with oil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.
Sogginess can be caused by a few factors: the filling was not completely cool before rolling, the oil temperature was too low, or the pan was overcrowded. Ensure the filling is dry and cool, and fry in hot oil in small batches.
Absolutely. You can prepare the vegetable and noodle filling up to a day in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This can save you a lot of time when you're ready to assemble and fry the rolls.
Use a neutral oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, or peanut oil. These oils won't impart a strong flavor and can handle the high heat required for crispy results.
