Ingredients

• 20 pieces Spring roll wrappers
• 250 grams Chicken breast or shrimp (finely chopped)
• 1 medium Carrot (julienned)
• 200 grams Cabbage (shredded)
• 100 grams Bean sprouts
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 medium Shallots (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground white pepper
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Cooking oil
• 1 large Egg white (for sealing wrappers)
• 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Heat 3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots, and sauté until fragrant (about 2 minutes).

Step 3

Add the chopped chicken or shrimp to the pan and cook until fully cooked through (about 4-5 minutes).

Step 4

Add the julienned carrot, shredded cabbage, and bean sprouts to the pan.

Step 5

Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, ground white pepper, and salt. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 6

Remove the filling mixture from the heat and let it cool completely.

Step 7

Lay out a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing towards you (forming a diamond shape).

Step 8

Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the filling onto the wrapper, close to the lower corner.

Step 9

Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the left and right sides inward, and roll it up tightly.

Step 10

Brush a small amount of egg white onto the top corner to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 11

Heat 500 milliliters of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat.

Step 12

Carefully fry the rolls in batches until golden and crispy (about 3-4 minutes per batch).

Step 13

Remove the fried rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

Step 14

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili or peanut sauce.
