Ingredients

  • Spring roll wrappers10 sheets
  • Shredded cabbage2 cups
  • Julienned carrot1 cup
  • Soy sauce1 tbsp
  • Garlic, minced4 cloves
  • Oil for brushing2 tbsp
  • Plain flour1 tbsp, for sealing

Method

  1. Wilt the filling

    Heat a teaspoon of oil and toss the garlic, cabbage and carrot over high heat for two minutes. Splash in the soy sauce and cook until the vegetables soften but still hold a slight bite. Spread the mix on a plate so it cools and any extra moisture escapes.

  2. Roll tightly

    Lay a wrapper as a diamond, spoon a slim line of filling near the bottom corner, then fold up and tuck the sides in. Roll snugly and seal the final edge with a smear of flour-water paste so it does not unravel.

  3. Oil the parcels

    Brush each roll on all sides with a thin film of oil, which is what gives the air fryer its deep-fried crackle. Arrange them seam-side down so they hold their shape during cooking.

  4. Air-fry until golden

    Place the rolls in a single layer with space between each one and air-fry at 190C for 12 minutes, turning once at the halfway mark. They are ready when the wrappers blister into a pale gold and sound hollow when tapped.
