Spring rolls recipe | How to make veg spring rolls

By swasthi , on August 25, 2020, 68 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Spring rolls recipe – Chinese vegetable spring rolls are a popular starter or snack that is served in Indo Chinese restaurants. These are perfect as a tea snack or for a weekend brunch. They can also be served for a dinner to accompany a bowl of delicious soup or noodles.

But in India most commonly one would find people enjoying these with masala tea in most tea shops too. These flaky spring rolls also go perfectly well with a hot cup of black tea or coffee.

Sometimes we serve them with one of these soups

vegetable soup
sweet corn soup

These can be made with homemade spring roll wrappers or with readymade frozen sheets. The homemade wrappers do not turn out as good as the readymade sheets.

Since the ready made sheets are machine made and have an even and thin layer. That gives a great and even crust or crisp once they are fried. I make spring rolls only few times a year. So I prefer to use the frozen ones.

You can find frozen sheets made with rice flour, wheat flour and plain flour too. I used ones made with wheat flour considering them to be okay as they are free from refined flour and preservatives.

The stir fried cabbage filling that is used here is very delicious. It can even be used for making wraps or sandwiches too.

This recipe yields vegetable spring rolls just as delicious as you find in any Chinese restaurants. There are no noodles used in this recipe. But if you like to then use about 1 cup of cooked noodles or half cake.

For the kids I make these with paneer and vegetable filling in a Indian style. I prefer to keep them away from soya sauce. Cauliflower, beans, broccoli, spinach and potato can also be used.

These can be baked as mentioned in method 2.

Preparation of filling for spring rolls

1. Heat oil in a wok or pan. The entire filling has to be cooked on a high flame. Saute spring onions just for a minute.

2. Next add shredded cabbage, carrots & capsicum. You can add bean if you like and can even skip capsicum. The restaurant rolls I ate in Singapore never had beans in them.

3. Saute until the veggies are half done yet crunchy. Add soya sauce.

4. Pour vinegar.

5. Next add spring onions, pepper and very less salt. There is also salt in soya sauce and even in wrappers as well. So take care not to add too much. Turn off the stove and set aside to cool.

6. Follow the instructions on the pack to remove the individual wrappers. I usually place a wet cloth on the bunch of wrappers for 5 to 7 mins. They begin to come out easily when pulled. Place one on the work area. Place the stuffing as you see in the pics.

7. Begin to roll one of the edge wrapping the edge as you see in the pic.

8. Next bring the other side to the center.

    Hi,
    Will the spring rolls be crunchy and taste the same if baked rather than deep frying?

    TIA!!
