Description

Delight in the crispy goodness of homemade traditional Filipino spring rolls, combining ground chicken and vegetables wrapped in a thin crispy shell.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 cup finely chopped carrots
  • 1 cup finely chopped green beans
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 egg
  • 1 package spring roll wrappers
  • Cooking oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, carrots, green beans, cabbage, green onions, garlic, and the egg. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.
  2. Take a spring roll wrapper and lay it flat. Scoop a tablespoon of filling onto the wrapper, placing it just above the center.
  3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to secure the filling.
  4. Moisten the top corner with water to seal. Repeat until all filling is wrapped.
  5. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the spring rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from the pan and place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Notes

For extra crispiness, fry in batches to maintain oil temperature. Let the filling sit for at least 30 minutes before wrapping for enhanced flavors.
