Method

  1. Wash the vegetables and cut the cabbage, carrots, and spring onion into very fine julienne (about 2mm thick).
  2. Heat the sesame oil in a wok or large skillet; add the ginger and spring onion, sautéing for 30 seconds.
  3. Add carrots and cabbage; stir-fry over high heat for 3-4 minutes, keeping the vegetables crisp.
  4. Add the bean sprouts and soy sauce, continue cooking for 1 minute, season with salt, and turn off the heat.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a colander and let it cool completely to drain excess liquids that could break the pastry.
  6. Dip one rice paper sheet at a time in lukewarm water for about 15-20 seconds until pliable, then lay it on a clean surface.
  7. Place a portion of the filling on the lower part of the sheet, fold the sides inward, and roll tightly to seal the spring roll.
  8. Heat the peanut oil to 175°C (347°F) and fry 3-4 rolls at a time for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately to maintain the crunchy texture.
