Description
Crispy air‑fried vegetable spring rolls filled with savory veggies and herbs—lighter than deep‑fried but still delightfully crunchy, perfect as a snack or appetizer.
Ingredients
- 8–10 spring roll wrappers
- 2 cups shredded cabbage (green or napa)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, julienned
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray or olive oil, for brushing
- Dipping sauce: soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, or plum sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine cabbage, carrots, red pepper, bean sprouts, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well.
- Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface or damp towel. Spoon about 2–3 Tbsp of filling near the bottom edge.
- Fold bottom corner over filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly toward the top, sealing edge with a little water.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Preheat air fryer to 375 °F (190 °C). Lightly spray or brush spring rolls with oil on all sides.
- Arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overcrowding.
- Air‑fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.
- Remove and cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Don’t overfill wrappers—too much filling makes them prone to bursting.
- For extra crunch, spray lightly again halfway through cooking.
- Let them rest a couple of minutes after air‑frying to firm up.
- Feel free to add mushrooms, tofu, or shredded cabbage variants for variety.
