Description

A delightful blend of fresh vegetables and seasoned meat wrapped in crispy spring roll pastry, perfect for gatherings or as a tasty snack.


Ingredients

  • Obleas de rollitos de primavera (spring roll pastry)
  • 150g ground meat
  • 10g ginger
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 350g cabbage (approximately 1/6 part)
  • 50g vermicelli noodles
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon flour mixed with 2 tablespoons water
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying


Instructions

  1. Remove the spring roll wrappers from the freezer.
  2. Soak 50g of vermicelli noodles in water for about 15 minutes until they soften.
  3. Slice the carrot and 350g of cabbage into thin strips, and finely chop the ginger.
  4. Heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan, add the ginger, and sauté for 15-30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add 150g of meat and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the pan, sautéing until cooked through.
  6. Toss in the carrot and cabbage strips, sautéing on high heat for 3-4 minutes.
  7. Drain and chop the vermicelli noodles and add them to the pan.
  8. Season with an additional 1/2 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, continuing to sauté for an extra minute.
  9. Taste the mixture and adjust the salt if necessary. Allow the filling to cool for 15-20 minutes.
  10. Create a paste using 1 tablespoon of flour mixed with 2 tablespoons of water as a sealing agent.
  11. Fill each spring roll wrapper with 2 tablespoons of the filling, then fold and seal.
  12. Fry the rolls in oil or cook them in an air fryer at 190ºC for 18 minutes.

Notes

Keep spring roll wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying. Use an air fryer or oven to reheat leftovers for maintaining crispiness.
