Spring Rolls Recipe
All you need to make homemade spring rolls are phyllo pastry, available in the freezer at most supermarkets, chicken mince or boneless chicken, spring onions, mix veg, seasoning and soy sauce. Serve with a sweet chilli sauce or any of your favourite dipping sauces.
These spring rolls can be air fried as well as deep fried. When using the air fry method, defrost slightly, brush your spring rolls lightly with oil and bake at 200°C in a pre-heated air fryer until golden brown and crispy, approximately 5 minutes a side.

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.
