Step 1

If you're using plant-based ground, simply season this. No need to cook the plant based meat. See notes for seasoning tips.

Step 2

If you're using tofu and vegetables, heat a large pan over medium. Add the oil then sauté the onion and garlic. When cooked, add in the vegetables and season with salt. Mix well and cook for 8-10 minutes over medium heat until the vegetables are cooked through and water has seeped out of the vegetables. Remove from the pan.

Step 3

Depending on whether there is a lot of liquid, you can strain the vegetable mix.

Step 4

In the same pan, heat another tablespoon of oil. Add in the tofu and crumble into small pieces using a fork.

Step 5

Season with the soy sauce, salt, and mushroom soy sauce (if using). Cook for 10-12 minutes moving around every 2 minutes until tofu starts to dry up and then turn into a mince.

Step 6

Once lightly browned and cooked through, turn off the heat then add in the vegetable mix. Mix well.

Step 7

Transfer to a bowl. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes.

Step 8

You can check out my video below to see how to wrap spring rolls!Make sure the wrappers are thawed at room temperature. This is to ensure they’re pliable and not dry. Prepare the wrappers by separating them from one another. Prepare a small bowl of room temperature water as well.

Step 9

Get one piece of wrapper.

Step 10

Add in 2 tbsp* of the filling on the bottom of the wrapper. *Note: the amount of filling will depend on the size of your wrappers.Make sure to press the filling to ensure it's compact.

Step 11

Slowly roll to bottom flap to the top. Dab with a little water.

Step 12

Fold both sides towards the center.

Step 13

Fold to roll to the top and sealing the top edge with water.

Step 14

You can refer to the photos or video for a better idea on how to wrap these spring rolls.

Step 15

Repeat this for the rest of the wrappers until you've wrapped all your rolls. You can also freeze uncooked rolls. See the steps in the notes below.

Step 16

Heat a deep frying pan with oil enough to submerge the spring rolls. Once hot, place a few rolls.

Step 17

Cook over medium heat. Flip after a few minutes to cook the other side. Once both sides are golden brown, remove from the oil. Leave on a strainer or on a plate lined with some paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 18

Let cool for a few minutes and slice into half, if desired. Enjoy while hot and dip in your favourite dipping sauce! I love mine with some bottled Thai sweet chili sauce.

Step 19

Baking option: You can also bake them by brushing the rolls with some oil before placing them on a lined baking tray and baking them in the oven for 40 minutes at 400F, flipping halfway through. They will of course not turn as evenly golden brown and juicy, but still very crispy!
