What you need

Quantities serve 4 (8 rolls). Cool the filling completely before rolling.

  • 8 spring roll wrappers
  • 1 cup cooked hakka noodles (about 80 g dry)
  • 1 tbsp oil, 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cabbage, 1/4 cup julienned carrot, 1/4 cup sliced capsicum
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp chilli sauce, 1 tsp vinegar, pepper and salt
  • 1 tbsp flour mixed with 2 tbsp water for sealing
  • Oil for deep frying
  • Chilli sauce, to serve

Step by step

Do not overfill. A tight, even roll is what keeps the filling inside.

  1. Cook the filling

    Heat the oil, fry the garlic for 15 seconds, then add the vegetables and cook on high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the noodles, soy sauce, chilli sauce, vinegar, pepper and salt and toss. Cool completely.

  2. Place on the wrapper

    Lay a wrapper in a diamond shape. Place 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling near the bottom corner.

  3. Roll

    Fold the bottom corner over the filling, fold in the sides, roll up tightly and seal the last corner with the flour paste.

  4. Fry

    Heat oil to about 170 C (340 F). Fry the rolls in batches for 3 to 4 minutes, turning, until deep golden and crisp.

  5. Serve

    Drain on paper and serve hot, with chilli sauce.

Tips for a better result

Dry filling and a tight roll are everything.

  • Squeeze or drain any liquid from the filling.
  • Roll tightly, but do not overfill.
  • Keep unused wrappers covered with a damp cloth so they do not dry out.

02

Mistakes to avoid

Watch for:

  • Warm filling that steams the wrapper and makes it tear.
  • Oil that is too cool, which makes greasy rolls.
  • Overfilling, which makes the roll burst.

03

Shopping for it in Canada

Supermarkets stock almost everything.

  • Spring roll wrappers: in the freezer aisle at many supermarkets and Asian grocers.
  • Noodles: thin wheat noodles or chow mein noodles.
  • Chilli sauce: Sriracha or sweet chilli sauce.
  • Soy sauce: regular or reduced-sodium.
