Vegetable Spring Rolls

Ingredients:

1 cup mixed vegetables, chopped long and slim/shredded (carrot, beans, cabbage, peas, corn, green, yellow, red peppers, etc)

1 onion, sliced

1 teaspoon ginger & garlic paste

1 tablespoon soya sauce

1 chopped green chilli

Salt and pepper to taste

1 teaspoon oil

Method:

1. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onions until transparent and pink.

2. Add the ginger garlic paste and fry for another minute.

3. Next add the vegetables and green chilli, sprinkle some water and cook closed until soft, yet crunchy.

4. Turn heat to high and add the soya sauce. Mix well for a minute on high.

5. Lower heat. Mix in salt and pepper. Remove from fire and cool.

Filling and rolling:

Defrost the pastry to room temperature before separating the sheets.

Lay out one sheet; add about 2-3 tbsp (depending on the size of your spring roll sheets) of the vegetable filling towards one corner.

Fold in the end of the corner first and then both sides.

Once these ends are firmly placed, start rolling towards the other end until fully done.

Deep fry until golden brown.

Cook’s notes:

– Add cooked, shredded chicken pieces.

– You can use any mix of vegetables you want. However, cabbage and peppers really enhance the taste.

– Arrange spring rolls in a single layer on a medium baking sheet. Brush with vegetable oil. Bake in preheated oven @ 200C for 20 minutes, until lightly browned. For a crispier spring roll, turn after 10 minutes.
