Vegan Baked Spring Rolls

Step 1

OVEN: Preheat your oven to 400F (200C). Line a large baking sheet with a wire rack.AIR FRYER: Preheat your air fryer to 370F (190C).

Step 2

In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add the cabbage, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, garlic, and ginger. Cook for about 5 minutes stirring frequently until the vegetables and mushrooms are cooked, about 5 minutes. Stir in the hoisin and soy sauce and cook 1 minute more. Remove from heat and let cool before assembling the spring rolls. You can pop it in the fridge to cool faster if you like.

Step 3

Set up a workstation with your spring roll wrappers, spring roll filling, a small bowl of water, and a baking tray fitted with a wire rack.

Step 4

To assemble the spring rolls, take a spring roll wrapper and place it on your work surface with a corner pointing up (diamond shape). Put about 2 tablespoons of the spring roll filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper. Fold up the bottom corner around the filling, then fold in both sides. Wet your finger or use a brush to wet the top edges with water to seal the spring roll. Finish rolling up the spring roll, then place on the wire rack with point side down. Repeat with remaining wrappers until all of the filling is used up.

Step 5

OVEN: Bake about 25 minutes until golden around the edges.AIR FRYER: Place the spring rolls in the air fryer, with the wrapper point side down. Place them in a single layer with room around each roll so they get air around all sides. You may need to work in batches. Fry about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.Serve hot with sweet & sour sauce.
