  • 2 tablespoon of Sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable or Sesame oil for brushing
  • Salt

Assembling the Spring rolls

  • Thawed Spring Roll Sheets
  • 1 tablespoon of Whole wheat flour or All purpose flour
  • 2-3 tablespoon Water

Instructions

Stuffing

  • In a wok, add 2 tablespoon of Sesame oil
  • Once the oil is hot, on medium to high add in the ginger, garlic and saute it for few seconds.
  • Now add in the Spring onions and saute until they start to sweat.
  • Now add the vegetables in the order of their firmness or crunchiness. I.e. first goes in carrots, beans, cabbage.
  • Saute on high for 2-3 minutes until they start cooking but are still firm.
  • Add in the Soya sauce,Red Chilli sauce and vinegar.
  • Lastly add the Pepper/capsicum and salt.
  • Go easy on the salt as the sauces have some salt in it.
  • Switch off and let this cool completely.

Assembling the Spring rolls

  • Make a slurry/paste using whole wheat flour and water. Make it into a smooth paste.
  • Place a single wrapper on a wet towel or your kitchen board.
  • Preheat the oven to 220 Deg C.
  • Arrange it in diamond form, i.e. one pointed side face towards you.
  • Add in 2-3 tablespoon of stuffing and start rolling gently. Be sure to take as much moisture as you can.
  • Stop when you reach halfway.
  • Apply a little slurry on the left and the right side and fold them one by one towards the center. It should resemble an open envelope. See the pic below.
  • Brush a little slurry on the edges of the open sheet and again start rolling the rest of the wrapper.
  • Seal it tightly and arrange it on a baking tray. Brush the top with a little oil.
  • Bake it in preheated oven for 10-15 minutes.
  • Turn, brush the other side again with oil and bake again for 10 minutes.

Notes

  • 1 Cup = 235 ml, 1 tbsp= 15 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml
  • If they are turning brown too quickly, reduce the heat to 200 Deg C. I had to after I flipped them.
  • One can even fry them if you do no want to bake.
  • The sheets should be covered with a damp cloth if you need to keep it outside longer, else it dries.
  • Stir frying needs to be done on high.
  • The vegetables need to be a bit crisp and not soggy. So cooking less and on high is essential.
