Product Details

Ingredients:

For the Filling:

• 250 g (½ lb) boneless chicken, shredded or finely chopped
• 1 tbsp oil (for cooking)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 1 cup cabbage, shredded
• ½ cup bell peppers, thinly sliced (optional)
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp chili sauce (optional)
• 1 tsp black pepper powder
• 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
• 1 tbsp spring onion greens, chopped (optional)

For the Spring Rolls:

• 10-12 spring roll wrappers (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 tbsp all-purpose flour + 2 tbsp water (for sealing the edges)
• Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling:

   • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
   • Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
   • Add the chicken and cook until fully cooked (no longer pink).
   • Toss in the carrot, cabbage, and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened but still crunchy.
   • Add soy sauce, chili sauce (if using), black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
   • Remove from heat, stir in spring onion greens (if using), and let the mixture cool completely.

2. Assemble the Spring Rolls:

   • Lay a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape (one corner pointing towards you).
   • Place 1-2 tbsp of the filling near the bottom corner, leaving some space at the edges.
   • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll it tightly to form a cylinder.
   • Use the flour-water paste to seal the edges. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

3. Fry the Spring Rolls:

   • Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot (about 350°F/175°C), fry the spring rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
   • Remove and drain on paper towels.

4. Serve:

   • Serve hot with dipping sauces like sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or ketchup.

Tips:

• If baking, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), brush the rolls with oil, and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• For an air fryer, spray the rolls with oil and cook at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes.
• Keep the wrappers covered with a damp cloth while assembling to prevent them from drying out.
