- finely chopped with different colours separated spring onion 4
- Julienned carrot 1 large
- Diagonally cut green beans
- 1/2 julienned red bell pepper
- Julienned cabbage 2 cups
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp soya sauce
- 2 tsp ground black pepper
- 3/4 tsp salt
- Oil
- 1 tbsp all purpose flour
Method
- Thaw the frozen sheets and later cover with a clean damp cloth and leave it for another 15 mins.
- Chop the veggies and keep them aside.
- Heat a large pan with sesame oil.
- Add the ginger, garlic and saute for 30 secs.
- Then add the white part of the spring onion and saute for another 30 secs.
- Add all the veggies (carrot, cabbage, bell pepper, green beans), sugar and saute for a minute.
- Then drizzle the soya sauce, sprinkle the fresh ground black pepper and salt and saute for 2 minutes or until the mixture becomes dry.
- Once done, add the green part of the spring onion, give a quick mix and turn off the flame.
- Transfer the filling to a baking sheet or large tray.
- Leave the sheet/tray stand in slanting position and let the filling cool down completely.
- This will help in draining out excess liquid from the filling.
- For sealing the spring rolls, prepare a paste by mixing the all purpose flour with 1 1/2 tbsp water and keep aside.
- Now place the sheet on a clean flat surface.
- Place a spoon full of filling about 2 cms away from the corner of the sheet.
- Now pick up that corner and roll into a tight wrap around the filling.
- Once you roll till the center of the sheet, fold both right and left corners towards the center. Continue to roll.
- Once the roll comes to the opposite corner, brush the corner with the flour paste and stick the corner nicely to the roll.
- Make sure that there are no gaps in the roll.
- Heat a pan with oil and once the oil is hot, drop the spring rolls one by one and fry until golden brown.
- As our stuffing is already cooked we need not cook the spring rolls in low/medium flame.
- You can fry them in high flame.
- Drain them on a paper napkin.
- Serve with ketchup or sweet dips.
