veggie spring roll filling

ok this might be a dumb question, but this is the first time im making spring rolls, and i’m still opting for the easy way out :smiley:

i’m just going to use prepackaged coleslaw mix for the filling like many recipes suggested, but what i can’t figure out is if i’m supposed to cook the coleslaw mix for a bit or just fill the wrapper and fry it that way

there are both ways online…what tastes better to you guys?

and some say to use soy sauce when cooking, some don’t

one says just soak it in sweet and sour sauce

i just want a simple recipe :smack:

i know there is a thread on the chicken and veggie variety, and i assume i can do the same thing without the chicken

but yeah still curious about the cooking or not cooking part

thaaanks :slight_smile:

Re: veggie spring roll filling

I didnt make the rolls with prepackaged coleslaw but i think u can make them without cooking the closlaw as the veggies cooks during frying,so shortcut.

Re: veggie spring roll filling

though i haven't ever used the pre packaged coleslaw thing...but then its almost the same as getting the cabbage and cutting it urself...:d

i always cook the vegies before filling the spring rolls....just saute them with a chopped onion and some cooking oil/olive oil with salt and pepper....i add soy sauce too...the cabbage wilts within minutes and then u r all ready to fill the rolls...

i hope this remains easy enough...:)

Re: veggie spring roll filling

I use mix vegies, thinly sliced cabbage, spring onions, and noodles. Stir fry them. Add cabbage at the very end. Season with salt, black pepper, and soy sauce.

Re: veggie spring roll filling

thanks a bunch guys

you're fabulous!

cooking it is :)

Re: veggie spring roll filling

thinly sliced cabbage, carrots, white onions and green pepper (capsicum)

Quick saute in oil add salt and touch of soy sauce. They should stillhave a slight crunch.

Important part: Put the veggies in a sieve to drain...otherwise it will be too soggy to fill

Re: veggie spring roll filling

Re: veggie spring roll filling

Re: veggie spring roll filling

Thanks =)

Re: veggie spring roll filling

a lot of indian grocery stores carry the ready made wraps too to make spring rolls. Pretty good & easy. :)

Re: veggie spring roll filling

The simplest way is to buy frozen spring rolls from Costco and just fry them or bake them. They are pure vegetarian and taste great.
